Cheerleaders are no exception as Tammy Dowdy ' s and Nancy Harman’s slightly cold but never-failing spirits still show.

From diverse backgrounds and varieties of experiences, each individual formed a part of the unit. Each main¬ tained his own particular identity through involvement in organizations and ac¬ tivities pertaining to his special interests; at the same time, the individual integrated himself into the whole of P.C.H.S. Each person contributed something of himself which stood as a representation of him¬ self as an individual, yet the individual contribution was incorporated into the whole to form a single cohesive unit. Students at P.C.H.S. had many diverse interests and engaged in a wide variety of activities. Attending sporting events, sock hops, movies and working, cruising, par¬ tying and eating at McDonald’s were standard activities for most students. In general, school hours passed in the same way for most students. Talking, leaning on the walls and working for clubs and organizations were usual. Other activities interested only a small number of stu¬ dents. Out of the ordinary activities in¬ cluded skiing, mountain climbing, and sky diving. Whatever an individual’s in¬ terest—whether usual or bizarre—he found himself in focus, one of many. Enjoyment comes in different forms for different people. Tammy Dowdy’s idea of enjoyment at the Senior Preparation for college includes some hard classes. Dance is dressing as everyone’s old favorite Lilly Munster from our childhood program The Munsters. David Smith discovers this attempting Chemistry. Dimes are the subject of complaints as lunch prices are raised to sixty cents and then a dime refunded as trays are turned in and cleaned out. Becky Sif- ford, evidently bored, repetitively gives out dimes as Yonna Saul, Tammy Fagg, and Carla Harrell take their turn emptying their trays during lunch. Innovations A number of new policies were in¬ troduced by the administration this year. These policies had a direct effect upon individuals as well as the school as a whole. “No movement time,” quickly dubbed “deadtime,” the first ten minutes of each class period in which no student was to be in the halls, produced swift and often embarrassing results for those in¬ dividuals who disregarded the rule. Another new policy was that of requiring students to pay an extra dime for lunch. The dime was returned when one’s lunch tray was taken to the wash area. This was an irritation to those students who had formerly simply left their trays on the table. Along with new policies, the ad¬ ministration made some innovations in the area of school spirit. A new school emblem, the Cougar paw, was in¬ troduced. The administration gave detailed instructions on how to make a paw; and the school board, with Mr. Dob¬ son himself supervising, provided means for painting Cougar paws on the road leading to the school. This new emblem greatly increased enthusiasm and school pride. Alter Many Familiar Focuses Senior Kim Quesenberry uses a book design to create a new piece of art work. Miss Quesenberry received an honorable mention in the American Association of University Women’s Art Show for her outstanding painting. 4 Industrial Maintenance students utilize great strength and concentration to affix steel girders for the undersupport of the new greenhouse. ■yM 6 ' r j rti ' lH- Early morning bus runs allow many students time to do their always present homework duties and give them an opportunity to socialize with their friends. Students are surprised one October morning to find giant Cougar paws marking Free time is put to good use as Mrs. Hillman’s fifth period aide, Sherry Berry, the path up Slaughterhouse Road to the stadium and to the main office. has an uncommon moment to herself in which to do her homework in advance. 5 L1 jaiiiMMUILl——IIIHII Sports, Clubs Concentrate Focal Image Individuals were able to develop cer¬ tain interests and contribute to the entire school through involvement in sports and clubs. A variety of clubs and organiza¬ tions were part of Pulaski County High School; not only did they aid students in developing their interests, but they also contributed greatly to the school. Sports gave students with athletic ability an outlet for their talents. Non-athletes also benefi¬ ted from sports. Events drew students together, providing a place for them to meet and encouraging school spirit. Athletic contests provided the non¬ participating student body social outing possibilities. Ballgames, meets, and matches were dating possibilities. In¬ creased spectator support improved morale and school spirit and spurred our teams on to victory.

Pulaski County High School was made up of over two thousand individuals, each focusing on something dif¬ ferent. Each student and staff member enjoyed a special interest; interests ranged from auto mechanics to Hinduism. Each individual, regardless of his in¬ terest, was able to contribute something to P.C.H.S. life, thus bringing all together as one complex unit. Individuals 9 OCUS: RESHMEN The freshman class focused on discover¬ ing new paths. The ways of the middle school were forgotten as they learned new codes of behavior, made new friends, and integrated themselves into high school life. Decisions — those of deciding which way leads to the science pod, which class to take, what to eat for lunch — were part of the life of a freshman. His eyes must focus simultaneously on the music and Mr. Propst — Buddy Ratcliffe braves the baritone. 10 Freshmen Carole A. Abbott Rebecca L. Adams Sherry L. Adams Anthony R. Adkins Randolph L.

Officers included Robin Crow¬ der, president; Cindi Wilson, vice presi¬ dent; Teresa Calfee, secretary; and Becki Johnson, treasurer. President Robin Crowder participated in numerous school activities. She com¬ peted in spelling in forensics competition and in the Pep Club. Her favorite class was language arts. Robin’s hobbies in¬ cluded reading and “unorganized” sports in her neighborhood. She had previously attended Dublin Middle School. Vice president, Cindi Wilson, had gone to Pulaski Middle School. Her favorite class was art, and she really liked to draw. Cindi’s other hobbies included horse¬ back riding and gymnastics. In the latter, her favorite area of competition was un¬ even parallel bars. She was also a mem¬ ber of the Pep Club. Secretary Teresa Calfee was very ac¬ tive in sports. She enjoyed football and had been a member of the Dublin Middle School track team, where she competed in discus and shot. Teresa loved music and singing, and had been in the D.M.S. choir. Our treasurer, Becki Johnson, was very interested in sports. She had been on the Pulaski Middle School track and gymnastics teams. Becki was in the marching band, where she played trum¬ pet. Her favorite classes were concert band and physical education. She was very helpful in raising money for the freshman class. All of the officers for the ninth grade enjoyed holding their positions. They showed lots of spirit and were hard workers.

Farmer Detention Awaits Delinquent Freshmen During their first days at the high school, freshmen found themselves ac¬ quainted with many new experiences. The first few days are filled with fear and confusion in finding new friends and classrooms. Freshmen also had to learn new names for familiar places. The “library” was the “I.M.C.”; the “cafeteria” was the “commons.” As the school year progressed, freshmen found themselves the object of various “freshmen jokes” but usually realized it was all in good fun. Like every other freshman class, they endured the favorite sport among upperclassmen: directing innocent freshmen to nonexis¬ tent elevators and escalators. Freshmen learned that they had many more responsibilities to accept in classes. They had to be in class on time or face a twenty-minute after school detention. Also they found that they could not leave a classroom during the first ten minutes of class. Students saw right away that they had to keep up with a lot of homework. Eventually the freshman class became accustomed to their new school and began to take much pride in being a member of it. There was some comfort in the knowledge that while they were the youngest class, they were also the largest class. Confused freshmen Todd Ratcliffe, Joyce Bratton, and Katrina Boyd wander aimlessly through the halls. Freshmen 15 Aelissa A. Farmer Lebron H. Finn Tony L. Finn Kenneth M. Fleenor Barbara A.

It was also a time for new experiences. The new lunch procedure was one of these. It took time for freshmen to become familiar with the a la carte line and ice cream stand. Having freedom of choice, even in what you have for lunch, made you more responsible. When freshmen learned upper¬ classmen were watching them, they did everything imaginable to become “one of the crowd”. Pre-game spirit days were a wonderful chance to show they were proud of their school and team. Hat days were always a big thing; almost everyone can find some type of hat to wear. Most are ordinary, such as cowboy hats, derbies, caps and gangster hats. Others are more original. There was also considerable participa¬ tion in jean day, overall day, and crazy hairdo day, among others. The freshmen also attended many athletic contests. If they weren’t playing themselves, one could almost be sure they were on the sidelines cheering their team on to vic¬ tory. During Homecoming week a pep rally was held. All classes made floats showing much creativity; freshmen placed second. Creative spirit is shown by Tim McGraw on hat day. 16 Freshmen Kenneth C. Gusler Ellen K. Guthrie James M. Haga John P.

This year the Freshman class became familiar with the Instructional Material Center (I.M.C.). Several ninth grade Language Arts classes went on a scavenger hunt in which they were given a question sheet and asked to answer the questions by searching for the answers in the I.M.C. Some questions that popped up were “Where is the magazine rack?”, “What is a vertical file?”, and “Where are the reference books located?”. The stu¬ dents learned that there were many more books and materials to select from in the I.M.C. than in the middle school libraries. After the students learned how to find the books, they learned how to check out the books. If the books were not checked out properly, the alarm system would go off. This procedure proved hard to remember for some students. If they needed something in the library, they could ask for assistance from the follow¬ ing people: Mrs. Hullinger, our librarian, Mrs. Morgan, the A.V. librarian, and Mrs. Berry, the library aide, who also takes care of fines and works at the desk.

In gymnastics she competed all- around, but liked beam best. She had many hobbies. Among them were biking, reading, field and track, and of course, gymnastics. Susan liked school very much and hoped to continue in her future years at P.C.H.S.. She thought of school as a challenge to learn more each year. It was also a stepping stone to a college career. She had Business Exploration as a class and Future Business Leaders of America and Forensics as clubs this year. She said she was not certain about her future career but hoped to study to become a veterinarian. While doing a double leg stag handstand on the beam, Susan MacNamara demonstrates her tremendous gymnastic ability. Michael E. Montgomery Susan R. Montgomery Angie A. Moore Donna L. Moore Dyer O.

If you liked to pretend to fold boxes, then you would probably enjoy Space Relations. Then there was Clerical Speed and Accuracy. It made you think you were in a race. After Abstract Reasoning everyone was walking around with dots before his eyes. Finally the results came and freshmen found out that they did much better than they thought they would. The relief received was exhilarating. Tired after days of D.A.T. testing, Miss Brenda Waller’s sixth period students complete Spoiling. Amy L. Overton Mary A. Owen Anthony W. Owens John A.

Shinault Freshmen Eniov Few Elective Classes l 1 Many classes met in the Vocational building, but one that many students seemed to take an interest in was the Health and Business Exploration class. The class was an elective open only to members of the freshman class. The class was divided into two semesters. First semester one set of students took Health and the other set took Business. The second semester, students reversed. Health Exploration class was con¬ cerned mainly with studying health careers. They studied different kinds of physicians, different kinds of nurses, dentistry, different kinds of therapists and dieticians. Business Exploration dealt with the fundamentals of a business career. Stu¬ dents were taught the basics of shorthand and introduced to the various business machines. Students might elect to con¬ tinue health or business courses of study in following years. Health Exploration classes put many theories to practice; Todd Ratcliffe and Garrett Wyatt read X-rays. 24 Freshmen Roger A. Shockley Darrell K. Shomaker Bruce E. Short Mark T. Showalter James H.

She has a lot of school spirit which can be seen by the inside of her locker. She has much pride in her locker which is covered with locker stickers from various school activities. Last year Susie was voted most talkative and class clown by her classmates. She likes plants and she en¬ joys reading. She also plays the piano which she has been doing for the past eight years. She has been going to Roanoke for the past three years in com¬ petition. She has received superior ratings on the pieces she plays. Susie’s future plans include more than her music; she plans to become a veterinarian. Enroute to class, Susie Brillheart stops by her locker. Selena W. Wilburn Douglas F. Williams Jonathan D.

Sophomores were able to choose from a wider selec¬ tion of electives and extra-curricular ac¬ tivities than ever before. Most sophomores met and survived two typical tenth grade responsibilities, the term paper and drivers’ education. ...

Focus: Amy Stanley Enjoys Band, Church Who was the sophomore who could toot a flute with a friendly smile? Amy Stanley? That’s right! Amy was the daughter of Dr. and Mrs. David Stanley. She had one sister and three brothers. Amy participated in the Golden Cougar Marching Band as a flute player; but she was also an accomplished pianist. After ten years of long practice hours, Amy took part in many contests and recitals. Amy stayed very busy after school also. She was co-vice-president and program chairman for the youth group at Dublin United Methodist Church and held an office in the sub-district of the church. Sewing and flower arranging also provided a break from her daily routine, as did helping her father at his veterinary clinic. Amy’s philosophy, You create your own happiness,” was reflected in her lifestyle. She was often heard singing in the halls. Katrina L. Cockeran Cheryl L. Collier Sanders B. Collins Russell D.

That was exactly what the sophomore class got when they elected Autti Hyde, president; Michelle Venable, Vice-presi¬ dent; and Melinda McCrorey, secretary- treasurer. The officers were fortunate to have a talented advisor in Mrs. Susan Ficke. She helped them win first place in the Homecoming float competition. The theme of this float was “Smash Franklin County,” and the float consisted of a moonshine still from the Alcoholic Beverage Enforcement Agency in Roanoke. She also helped the sophomores decorate the locker banks and showcases. Throughout the year many ideas were discussed for raising money for the Junior-Senior Prom of 1981. Suggestions for money-raising projects ranged from car washes to a hot dog supper. A sock hop was sponsored during the winter sports season to accumulate funds, and all sophomores paid $2.00 dues to sup¬ port the prom. Sophomore class officers Michelle Venable, vice-president; Melinda McCrorey, secretary-treasurer; and Autti Hyde, president take time from their busy schedules to meet and discuss future plans for the class of ' 82. This class participates in activities such as decorating a float during Homecoming week. Edward D. Duncan Kenneth M. Duncan Parthenia L. Duncan Richard A. Duncan Steven M. Duncan Jolene Y.

Guthrie Deadra J. Hackett Faye L. Haga 34 Sophomores Academics Provide Challenge Most sophomores who wished to con¬ tinue science took biology. Biology was relatively fun, especially the experiments that didn’t work. Dissecting was the most fun. Biology students could cut up in class without getting into trouble! Earthworms, frogs, grasshoppers, fetal pigs, fish (and the worst-behaved student in the class) were potential victims of sophomore scalpels. Queasy-stomached sophomores often passed up lunch after an especially pungent dissection. After dissections were completed, sophomore biology students entered enthusiastically into the “Yogurt Competi¬ tion.” This culinary scientific exercise provided students an opportunity to put theoretical learning to use. Using essen¬ tially dairy products and employing the concept of bacterial growth, they produced yogurt, sour cream, Neufchatel, etc., which were judged by a panel of connoisseurs from the faculty. Some of the sophomores that con¬ tinued with math took algebra. Algebra was an experience no one should miss! Initially algebra students were completely mind-boggled. But, for many people, somehow by the end of the year algebra began to make sense. After two years of algebra, if students were not sick of math, came the dreaded geometry. Memorizing postulates, theorems, corollaries, and doing proofs, students became quite confused. Only the lucky ones understood.

Michelle, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Timothy Venable, was quite a busy per¬ son. She was a member of the cheerleading squad, Black Student Union, Pep Club, and Concert Choir, as well as being vice-president of the sophomore class. She also managed to find time for outside activities and hob¬ bies: swimming, gymnastics, riding and camping. When Michelle was asked about what college she might attend and what profession she might choose, she replied, “I would like to go to U. Va. or a university of some sort and go into medicine, probably to become a pediatri¬ cian. I like kids.” Michelle was surrounded by a “crazy” sister, Daphne, a senior in high school; a brother, Timmy, who was a sophomore at the University of Richmond; and a collie named Bridgett. She was a Taurus. Her favorite foods were pizza, cheeseburgers, spinach (blah), and vanilla ice cream. Michelle was a strong-willed person who knew what she wanted. She proved Because she likes kids, pixie Michelle plans to become a pediatrician. this with this reply when asked about her goals in life, “To succeed in whatever I do and to do my best.” Asked her philosophies, Michelle, who is quite an understanding person, said, “I believe that you shouldn’t judge others until you’ve walked a mile in their shoes.” When asked about what she would remember about her sophomore year, Michelle’s answer was, “I will remember the fun that I had and the teachers and students whom I liked a lot and will miss dearly.” Focus: Michelle Venable Cheers, Performs Brian J.

Mines Variety of “Fun” Available for Sophomores Many sophomores experienced the fun of X-ing, T-ing, and Y-ing. What did all that mean? Driver’s Education. Sophomores found this to be a welcome relief from classes as they were allowed to spend seventeen days on the range. During this time they practiced passing, changing lanes, parallel parking, and try¬ ing to maneuver their cars through the “T,” “X,” and “figure 8’s.” The students were aided by Mr. Harry Loftus, Mr. Allen Wiley, and Mr. David Wright. Students actually drove only seven hours of the seventeen days behind the wheel. To finish the require¬ ments for Driver’s Education, they spent thirty-six additional hours in class. Besides the fun of driving, sophomores came together to create quite a spirited class at pep rallies, football games, and many more school-related activities. Lots of time and work went into making posters and signs for pep rallies. They provided support, not to mention partici¬ pants for many of the sports and club events. Sophomores also found fun and relax¬ ation in their locker banks area. During homecoming and other “festive” occa¬ sions, they filled the area with streamers, posters, banners and pictures. No other class worked more enthusiastically. Such enthusiasm paid off when the class of ’82 took top honors in decoration competi¬ tions. And even when there were no con¬ tests, tenth graders lounged in their locker banks enjoying the security of their “own ground” and noisily proclaiming their superiority.

Golf, tennis, social dancing, weight¬ training and many other activities kept sophomores busy at least every other week. The other weeks were spent taking driver’s education and then health. Obviously, the average sophomore preferred activity-oriented physical education to the notes and tests of health class. Social dancing, a relatively new aspect of the physical education curricu¬ lum, was especially popular. Of course, some students objected to all courses, including physical eduation. Easily the most popular course offered at Pulaski County, drivers’ education appealed to virtually every student. The lure of lower¬ ed insurance rates assured that. Mental and consumer health were two topics which were examined in health. Careers directly related to health were ex¬ plored. Driver’s education provided students Aija H. Putkonen Blaine C. Quesenberry Glenda M. Quesenberry James L. Quesenberry Judy L. Quesenberry Michael L. Quesenberry opportunities to learn ways to react safely to different traffic situations. Traffic rules and regulations were topics upon which much emphasis was placed. Weeks when students participated in gym, diverse activities provided exercise and fun along with a change of pace from monotonous school days. Of course, the dreaded President’s Physical Fitness tests were taken every fall and spring. Sophomores generally enjoyed their last year in P.E. Sophomores 41 Rhonda L. Quesenberry James A.

Smith Mindboggling Topics Bamboozle Students Sophomores knew it had to happen sooner or later, but they were hoping for later rather than sooner. That’s right folks, TERM PAPERS, a three or four week task sophomores would rather forget, but couldn’t. A great many hours of time and research were put into these papers. Proper English, punctuation, and capitalization were some of the things stressed during this time. Finding someone to type the paper was sometimes a problem. Sophomores either hired their parents or tried it them¬ selves. And if that were not enough, they had to worry about rechecking out books Work days are readily utilized as frantic sophomores rush to finish note cards and rough drafts in order to have their first term papers completed on time. or paying a nice fine for overdue books. Finding a topic was also a problem. There was usually a change of topics every few hours. More popular topics were Abortion, Reincarnation, Death and Dying, Indians, and one student even chose the mindboggling topic of the Theory of Relativity. And once they found their topics, trying to write a thesis sen¬ tence was relatively difficult. Thesis sentence written, revised, and rewritten, sophomores were ready to produce the rough draft. For most of them, the draft was indeed rough. After weeks of struggle, students sub¬ mitted their manuscripts for checks on form. The red-penned papers re¬ turned to them brought renewed strug¬ gles. Term paper manuals suddenly became the most popular items in the school bookstore as the dreaded dead¬ line loomed menacingly nearer. Title pages (often artistically embellished), outlines, footnotes, and bibliographies completed the papers. At the end, sophomores turned in their papers never to be seen again. Teachers could be heard mumbling things about late nights. There were even thoughts of having a bonfire to burn the papers . . . Sophomores 43 Davis D. Smythers Anthony D. Snell Cassandra L.

Jeff demonstrated his talents as he quarterbacked half the season for J.V. football and then played the rest of the season as back-up quarterback for Varsi¬ ty. Of course football wasn’t everything; Jeff also spent time playing J.V. basket¬ ball and pitched and played outfield on the J.V. baseball team. He was also a member of the S.C.A. and Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Jeff wanted to attend either the Univer¬ sity of Tennessee or Duke University and go into general practice. Jeff’s only philosophy in life was “You get out of life what you put into it, so make a worthwhile effort in everything you do.” Jeff, the son of Rev. and Mrs. Hagen R. McClellan had two brothers, Rob, a junior in high school, Joey, and one sister Holly. Some of Jeff’s favorite activities were swimming and eating. His favorite foods included pizza, steak, cheesecake and coconut cream pie. World War II provides interesting reading and abundant material for Jeff McClellan to use in his term paper.

Mrs. Cline’s Beginning Typ¬ ing class works diligently to perfect their typing skills. Simulated On-the-Job Experience Provided Vocational classes offered many fields of study to sophomores. They could choose from various types of typing -classes, several business and manage¬ ment classes, classes dealing with food or clothing management, cosmetology, electronics, auto mechanics, and many more. Local businesses provided oppor¬ tunities for the students to prepare for future careers in the vocational field. Vocational clubs gave students the chance to gain experience in public speaking, public displays and other aspects by participating in rallies throughout the state. At the sophomore level, students entered courses which stressed basic skills. In some classes, these skills were primarily technical as participants learned to set wigs in cosmetology, test circuits in electronics or prepare foods in food services. In these and other courses sophomores learned much theoretical knowledge. This balanced approach provided students with a firmer foundation. Sophomores were fortunate to have such well-organized vocational programs and leaders. Student careers were greatly strengthened by these learning oppor¬ tunities, which provided valuable simulated on-the-job experience. Elvin D. Whitt Lisa K. Whitt Ann L. Whittaker Kenneth D.

Y, y In their first year as upperclassmen, juniors faced many new kinds of respon¬ sibilities and decisions; these decisions had a great effect on their futures. Stu¬ dents wishing to enter college chose to take the P.S.A.T. and the S.A.T., and they elected to take primarily academic courses. Those desiring some type of vocational career took vocational classes. Junior were also faced with other types of decisions. They had to decide how to spend their spare time, the stone and metal for their class rings, and whether to attend the junior-senior prom. 48 Juniors Alice J. Abbott Michael G. Abbott Tena L.

For most of the officers, leadership of their class was only one of many involvements. Class presi¬ dent, Cindy Farmer, cheered on the var¬ sity squad. She shared responsibilities with Joe Hardy, who found time for his vice presidential duties amid managing the varsity football team and keeping score for the varsity basketball team. Another cheerleader, Jill Overton, was secretary for the juniors. Karen Worrell was class treasurer. Karen filled her spare time working at Pulaski Theatre and play¬ ing on the volleyball team.

Dishon 52 Juniors Class Rings Finally Arrive—Chaos Reigns One of the highlights of the junior year was the ordering of class rings. Juniors were overwhelmed by the selection of rings Josten’s presented them. They had a large range of styles, colors, sizes, and metals from which to choose. White gold and yellow gold rings were quite an in¬ vestment for students this year because of the rising prices of those metals. Eleventh graders could choose to have their birthstones or other stones on the rings. The new attraction this year was the dinner ring for the girls. The rings ranged in size from miniature to jumbo and could be imprinted with a variety of emblems. Also added to the selection this year was the Josten ' s Star which would reflect a star in the presence of any source of light. The class rings were to arrive by Christmas, and juniors waited impatiently for the announcement that they had come. When the big day finally arrived, the halls were filled with excitement as juniors hurried to pick up the rings. Classes were essentially forgotten as ex¬ cited juniors compared the exquisite, unique beauty of each new piece of jewelry. Veteran teachers, long familiar with ring mania, waited for the newness to fade. Mr. Donald Schley takes ring orders from Malcolm Cadd and Gary Palladini as others anxiously look on. Terry J.

In addition to stamps, Ritche was interested in government. He had applied fora posi¬ tion as page in the United States Con¬ gress and hoped to spend the summer and perhaps next year in that position. At school, band occupied much of Ritche’s time. Playing drums for the Golden Cougar Marching Band, he had traveled to competitions in Lynchburg, Danville, Harrisonburg, and Florida. Also, he remained busy with the golf team dur¬ ing the spring months. He was an enthusiastic spectator at ballgames, listing football and basketball as his favorites. Academically, Ritche took advanced classes, preparing to study law at the College of William and Mary. Intent on his studies, Ritche Moore catches a few extra moments to prepare for a test in trigonometry. Rebecca S. Farley Charles B. Farlow Cynthia J. Farmer Susan K. Farmer Duane E. Faw Johnny L.

One of a handful of married students at P.C.H.S., her only complaint was that she was sometimes aggravated when her husband left for work as soon as she got home. Bonnie usually finished all of her housework and homework early, because she left school at 2:10. Bonnie thought that anyone should get married while in school if the two people were sure they could handle the new lifestyle. Her only advice was to be certain about a mate. She felt things were difficult at times, but everything could be worked out with a little cooperation. Bonnie enjoyed a new freedom being married, although she still had to ask per¬ mission before doing something. She and her husband lived in their own apartment, which she felt was more reasonable than living with her parents. The housework will simply have to wait for a while.

Busy with her art project, Cindy Miller cares for her mother and keeps house after school. Among the large number of interesting juniors, Cindy Miller was one individual with an extremely important life. She spent her spare time much like any other teenager, with one exception; she was a devoted housekeeper. Cindy, being the only child left at home, had taken care of her mother since the fourth grade. She had buckled down and assumed most all of her family’s housework. Cindy’s mother had multiple sclerosis, a disorder of the body’s nervous system. To Cindy and her mother it meant the paralysis of her mother’s right leg. It also caused Mrs. Miller difficulty with keeping her balance and picking things up. Cindy didn’t feel as though she had done anything out of the ordinary. As she put it, “Any daughter would do this for her mother. . . you know some people have it worse. At least I have a mother.” Perry D. King William W. Kirk Scott R.O. Koch Christopher B.

Eric went through much mental and physical preparation before he attempted the jump. There was no doubt in his mind about jumping from an airplane and descending twenty-eight hundred feet through the air. Six hours of groundwork were necessary for Eric to prepare for his first jump. Among the information covered during this time were malfunctions, parachute landing falls, climbing in and out of the mock plane, and canopy con¬ trol. These were practiced many times before the jump. After making two static line jumps, Eric continued to advance his jumping career. He made three dummy ripcord pulls in preparation for his first freefall. Accom¬ plishment of this milestone in sport parachuting convinced Eric that freefall was really what skydiving was all about. Eric decided to reserve Sundays for parachuting. He planned to continue his hobby in the future, and felt that the ex¬ perience was one which had never been equaled. The smile on Eric Goodman’s face expresses the joy . . . and relief . . . that comes only from a first jump. Sabena G . Prim Cynthia D. Proco Murray W. Queen Curtis W. Quesenberry Denna J.

Sarver i I L I Spirited Junior is Active in Many Events School spirit was an important aspect of the past school year. Through the Pep Club, the entire student body was urged to use his or her talents to help promote school spirit. Although many juniors were involved in the club, one in particular spent much of her spare time and energy in demonstrating the true meaning of spirit. Marjorie Whitaker had been a member of the Pep Club for three years, and had lettered each year. Showing her creativity by making a wide variety of buttons, posters, and banners, she helped fill the already-covered walls. She also par¬ ticipated in all of the dress-up days, demonstrating to the underclassmen how to become involved. A faithful attendant of many athletic events, she provided much of the support needed for success and proved to the entire community that school spirit is alive and well in Pulaski County. Intensely occupied, Marjorie Whitaker contributes to the school ' s spirit by cutting out locker stickers. 62 Juniors Randal L. Scott Perry H. Semones Maureen A. Sewell Donald P. Shelor Eugenia L.

A Big Success The Fashion Merchandising Class not only survived its trial year here, but it rose above everyone’s expectations and seemed to be very promising for the com¬ ing years. The class, which consisted of fifteen juniors and seniors provided many opportunities to students in the exciting world of fashion buying, selling, and store management. The students not only studied these in the classroom but were also out in the “working world’’ applying this knowledge gained in the classroom. They were employed at many stores throughout the county such as Belk’s and Sidney’s. There, they found much of the experience needed to go into a career in fashion merchandising. Their activities in¬ cluded a professional luncheon and the D.E.C.A. district, regional, and national competitions in “apparel and ac¬ cessories.” The year was highlighted with a field trip to New York. Juniors 65 nMMHMHHBHMH Seniors focused on the end of high school life and the beginning of adult life. Seniors enjoyed special privileges such as having the entire student body stand as they marched into pep rallies and leav¬ ing five minutes early for lunch. Seniors were however, faced with awesome responsibilities. Seniors had to decide which college to attend or which career to undertake. Many were concerned as to whether their twelve years of preparation were adequate for their new lives. Running so fast his feet defy focus, Gary Clark contributes his effort to an end-sweep.

Many students knew of the foreign ex¬ change students studying at Pulaski County High School during the 1979-80 school year. However, many were not aware of Pulaski County ' s exchange stu¬ dents. Dina Donnelly spent two months during the summer studying in Germany. She adopted the Ehlers as her German family and took Hollern as her second home. Dina was enriched by this ex¬ perience and felt that it had helped her understand people better. Back in this country, most of her time was taken up by drama. During her four years at school, she performed in numer¬ ous plays including Tennessee William’s The Glass Menagerie for which she was named “Best Actress.” She planned to participate in Wytheville Community Col¬ lege’s production of A Midsummer Night ' s Dream. Amanda consoles Laura as Dina Donnelly and Kym Davidson perform in The Glass Menagerie.

President Terry Guynn, vice-president Everett Grubb, secretary-treasurer Von Beamer, and reporter Lisa Ratcliffe made many decisions which benefited the en¬ tire class. The class officers and the Senior Steering Committee had the great responsibility for planning senior ac¬ tivities. The class officers and the steering committee intruduced a number of events for seniors, including a Senior Roast and a Mardi Gras dance. The major respon¬ sibilities of the officers and the steering committee were to choose the color and design of graduation announcements and to plan activities for the traditional “Senior Week.” Another accomplishment was the sponsoring of a “Senior of the Week” drawing. The officers and the steering committee spent a great dea l of time and effort to organize events and to make each senior’s final year in high school one of the best. Senior Class Officers, President Terry Guynn, secretary-treasurer Von Beamer, vice-president Everett Grubb and reporter Lisa Ratcliffe, discuss pending class business.

Jim Gloster, Everett Grubb, and David Pugh spent June 17- 23 at Lynchburg College. Boys’ State, sponsored by the American Legion, provided participants with the opportunity to learn about Virginia State Government and governmental processes. Delegates were placed in “cities” upon arrival. From these cities all governmental processes evolved; some of these processes were caucuses, conventions, and legislative meetings. Besides par¬ ticipating in governmental meetings, delegates were addressed by Lieutenant Governor Charles Robb and Attorney General J. Marshall Coleman. These of¬ ficials led discussions concerning Virginia state government. Delegates also enjoyed intra-city athletics, glee club, and band. The major event of the week was the election of state officials—attorney general, lieutenant governor, and gover¬ nor. The representatives found Boys’ State to be an enjoyable experience; the most rewarding aspect of the Boys’ State was the opportunity to make new friends and live and work with new companions. Looking very mischievous by the smiles on their faces, Boys’ State participants enjoy a moment of relaxation from the important classes involved in their schedules. David Pugh, Jim Gloster and Everett Grubb are exhilarated by the atmosphere in the courtyard.

She preferred being alone to be¬ ing in a crowd of people. Yolonda liked to dance, write letters, and read romantic novels. She had no real hobbies. She therefore spent most of her time with her family and reading the novels assigned in her Advanced Placement English class. Yolonda was involved in two extra¬ curricular activities at P.C.H.S. She was a member of the yearbook staff and sang in the Concert Choir. She supported other school activities as well. She knew little about the game of football, but she showed considerable spirit and love for our great football team this year.

An employee of Pulaski County High School, Daphne Venable works diligently after school in the office. Daphne Venable: Performs Duties During School Hours Daphne possessed great citizenship, hardly ever neglecting to speak when she recognized anyone anywhere. She was always prepared to help in anything, es¬ pecially if it meant duties outside of regular class routines! One could find Daphne many times typing stencils for her needy teachers and saying, “Okay, if I don’t have to take the test until tomorrow.” The switchboard in the main office kept Daphne busy during two school hours. She tried to answer any questions that arose from callers, but her main job was to write down absentees’ excuses from parents. Daphne had two dogs, Bernard and Brigette, who were just as big as she was. She loved sports as much as her football star brother Tim Venable had, but she didn’t play the games. The most exciting sport Daphne loved was chasing boys! Daphne had great school spirit, es¬ pecially when boys’ sports were con¬ cerned. She was always ready to cheer them on and make them laugh. “Daffy Venerable,” a nickname she was called, did not discourage her in her never-ending quest to confuse teachers and get her way in everything. She de¬ served respect for being so crafty but was too active to be called aged.

Though few people knew it, Todd Boyd was the biggest movie fan in school. He possessed over two hundred photos from horror movies, which decorated his bedroom. His parents found his love for horror movies a little annoying. Todd had many other interesting hob¬ bies, such as gardening, traveling and drama. He had grown quite a few exotic houseplants at home. He was also one of the students who visited Europe this sum¬ mer. Todd enjoyed his trip and he plan¬ ned to go back later and stay for a longer period of time. He shared himself with others during the summer as an employee of Pulaski | Community Hospital where he was a nurses’s aide. Todd felt privileged to help those who were ill, while gaining a great sense of responsibility from alleviating the discomfort of patients in his care. JEFFERY SCOTT CROUCH — F.F.A. 10- 12 .

Meredith Maintains Apartment by Working Working at Bonanza in Fairlawn took up much of Tai Meredith’s time outside of school. Tai began working in December of 1978 when she was a junior, and she performed all the duties of the traditional waitress—serving people in addition to cooking and preparing food. With her salary, Tai was able to maintain an apart¬ ment in Fairlawn. Living alone gave her a considerable amount of freedom to live the way that she chose. In 1976 Tai moved from Hawaii to Pulaski County where she lived with some of her brothers and sisters on land owned by their grandparents. Tai enjoyed cook¬ ing, painting, and drawing. She was an active member of the Art Club at the high school. In the future Tai planned to attend New River Community College. She also intended to travel the world and hoped one day to visit her mother’s homeland. PATRICIA JOYCE DICKERSON — D.E.C.A. 11-12. BRIAN CRAIG DOBBINS — V.I.C.A. 9-12; I.C.F. 9-12; Football 9-10.

A familiar face in the halls, halftime shows and on the stage was Marie Reid. Marie practically lived at the school, be¬ ing involved in band, forensics and drama. She played clarinet in the Symphonic Band and had been in the flag corps of the marching band for three years. Her senior year she captained the flag corps. Marie was perhaps best known for her participation in drama. She acted in all of the one-act plays during her four years at the school. These included “God’s Trom¬ bones,” “Comings and Goings,” “Ter¬ minal,” and “The Brick and The Rose,” for which she was named an all-star at the Masque Festival in Bristol, Virginia. This play won state competition, and Marie traveled with the cast to Chicago to com¬ pete in the National Theatre Conference. She furthered her education in drama as she attended a three-week drama workshop in Tennessee last summer. She hoped to enroll at N.C.S.A. DONNA JEAN FERRELL — Pep Club 9- 10 .

Only one of them was a senior. Rhonda Seitz managed to take physics, German, ad¬ vanced grammar and government, and work in Radford. Most people never knew that Rhonda donned her coveralls fourth period every day and tinkered with motors for three hours. Being a female mechanic was not easy. Several boys still found it hard to accept the idea that girls were capable of doing mechanical work. Snide remarks and practical jokes were common, but the boys adjusted. School was not Rhonda’s only activity; she also worked nights at Kroger’s in Radford. Her job was never easy. Screaming kids, coupons, and the dreaded express lane kept Rhonda on her toes. Of course, she had the common ailments — fatigue, bags under her eyes, and a huge pile of homework. Somehow, through all the rush and confusion, Rhonda managed to smile and sparkle. Any free time she had, Rhonda either slept or kept the roads hot; but the price of gas hampered her fun. A female shatters the sex barrier as Rhonda Seitz learns to decipher an air gauge in Auto Mechanics. DEBORAH ANNE GRAY KEVIN HOUSTON GRAY — V.I.C.A. 11- 12 .

Necessary But Nervewracking Tests For College Entrance Unspeakable horrors, huge black dots swimming around an empty room, two broken No. 2 lead pencils lying on the table, the commons freezing the joints in your hand — such were the nightmares of the unfortunate seniors the night before taking the S.A.T. or A.C.H. tests. Although they had convinced themselves not to be nervous, many found they could not eat breakfast because of the knots in their stomachs. The S.A.T. (Scholastic Aptitude Test) and the A.C.H. (Achievement Test) were required by many colleges and univer¬ sities. Approximately one-fourth of the senior class took part in the S.A.T. which consisted of a verbal section, a mathematical section, and a test of stan¬ dard written English. The average national verbal score was 427 and the average mathematical score was 467. A combined score of a thousand or more was often enough to secure entrance into the college of one’s choice. The average national score for the T.S.W.E. (Test of Standard Written English) was 42.5. Ap¬ proximately 30 students participated in the A.C.H., the average score being 529.

Afternoons, Mark Cox could be seen running on the side of the road to the cross country course. Track was one of Mark ' s favorite hobbies, and he worked very hard to improve his speed and en¬ durance. In his junior year Mark set the school record for the 800-meter run; and in his senior year he went all the way to state, as well as being voted M.V.P. Running was just one of Mark ’s many hobbies. He was also an accomplished string instrument musician. He played the flat top guitar, the banjo, the fiddle, and the mandolin. Mark accompanied his church choir with his string instrument playing. He was also a member of the band throughout his high school years. Other hobbies which Mark enjoyed were hunting, fishing, stamp collection, (his collection was valued between $3000 and $4000), and one very unusual hobby, buying and collecting shoes, es¬ pecially running shoes. After high school Mark’s plans were to attend college. His secret ambition was to become a judge. Athletes must keep up their grades. Mark Cox studies in government class. Seniors 89 FRANKLIN DUANE JONES HOWARD CLIFTON JONES LARRY NEAL JONES VANESSA KAYE JONES Philip Hearn Leads Marching Band One very busy and very talented senior at P.C.H.S. this year was Philip Hearn. Philip participated in many school ac¬ tivities, especially those pertaining to music and drama. During his four years of high school he acted in four play productions and was a member of the Golden Cougar Marching Band. During his junior and senior years, he was a drum major. Philip was also a member of the concert and symphonic bands. Another one of Philip’s talents was his ability to sing. He was a member of the concert choir, All-regional and All- Virginia choirs, Virginia Honors Choir and Who’s Who Among American High School Music Students. In his spare time Philip played the piano and organ at Memorial Baptist Church. He also enjoyed spending time with his Shih-tzu dog “Jonna” and his cat “Prissy.” After graduation Philip’s plans were to major in music at Radford Univer¬ sity, as music was an important part of his life. He planned to major in Music Education and Voice, and teach music. FRANKLIN DUANE JONES — F.F.A. 9-10; D.E.C.A. 10-12. HOWARD CLIFTON JONES LARRY NEAL JONES — Band 9-10.

From mid-June to mid-July Joe Ellen Napier, Tim Jones, and Donna Pierce at¬ tended the Governor’s School for the Gifted. Governor’s School hosted a select group of gifted students from all parts of the state. P.C.H.S. representative Jo Ellen Napier attended the school at Mary Baldwin College, while Tim Jones and Donna Pierce attended Randolph-Macon Women’s College. Governor’s School provided students with a wide range of activities including movies, concerts, dances, and field trips. On week days, students attended classes which ranged from Physics of Music to Oriental Philosophy. Governor’s School not only provided students with the opportunity to learn more about special interests, but it also gave them the chance to make new and lasting friendships. As the 1979 session of Governor’s School for the Gifted came to a close, students realized just how strong their new friendships had become. Each left the school greatly saddened, but looking forward to the Governor’s School reunion. Governor’s School participants view into a higher form of math, not an unusual decision made by academically gifted students. Representatives from P.C.H.S. for the Governor ' s School for the Gifted were Jo Ellen Napier, Tim Jones and Donna Pierce.

Girls’ Staters Gather for Busy Sessions at Longwood Nancy Harmon, Connie Gibas, and Tracy Evans represented P.C.H.S. at the 33rd annual session of Virginia Girls’ State, held at Longwood College, June 17-23. Girls’ State, sponsored by the American Legion Auxiliary, provided an understanding of American governmental processes and the rights and respon¬ sibilities of American citizens. Upon arrival, the delegates were placed in “cities” with other represen¬ tatives from different parts of the state. Representatives participated in a model government and learned the fundamen¬ tals of Virginia state and city government. The climax of the week came when the delegates elected their own attorney general, lieutenant governor, and gover¬ nor. The delegates often found participating in government to be very difficult, but all agreed that Girls’ State was a rewarding and enjoyable experience. The knowledge they acquired and the friends they made were not soon to be forgotten. ROBERT MITCHELL LORTON — Pep Club 9-10; D.E.C.A. 10; Band 9-12.

For Outstanding Leadership School, volleyball and work kept Trina Painter extremely busy. One might have found her starring in a volleyball game, doing homework in chemistry or calculus, or selling programs at football games for the pep club. Whatever the task, Trina ac¬ complished it with zeal. Trina enjoyed performing secretarial duties after school each day, but she was not sure about the career she would choose. She also carried a full academic load in preparation for college. Trina had been a member of the Pulaski County volleyball team for three years. She served as co-captain her senior year. This year her efforts paid off as she was voted Most Valuable Player by her teammates. She enjoyed other sports as well, and was an active Pep Club member.

Seniors 97 DEBRA SUE MITCHELL GERALD KEITH MITCHELL BARRY NEAL MOORE DOUGLAS WAYNE MOORE Price Attends Tech Program for Seniors Several seniors experienced college life during the summer of 79. Wesley Price was one of one-hundred people from all over the state of Virginia who par¬ ticipated in Virginia Tech’s program for rising seniors. He was selected to attend the five-week event on the basis of his P.S.A.T. scores and his grade point average. These students were required to take Honors Literature and Composition. Wesley also chose to study applied mathematics and calculus. These courses were college level and yielded college credits. These courses also helped teach the “terror” of the final exam. Wesley also competed in the Radford University Math Rally in the fall of 79 as a member of the math team. He had also been a member of the marching and stage band.

For many, the senior year was greatly different and, in many ways, more enjoyable than the other years. This was due, in part, to the uniqueness of the class of 1980. Two rights added greatly to the thrill of the year and aided in delineating seniors from the lower classes. The freshman, sophomores, and juniors showed respect for the seniors by standing up when seniors entered pep rallies. Also, seniors were allowed to leave class five minutes before their lunch period began, giving them more time for a favorite oc¬ cupation-socializing. Seniors were distinctly separated from the other classes by the privileges which had become traditional at P.C.H.S. RICHARD LEE NOEL — Cross Country 9- 12; Indoor Track 9-12; Outdoor Track 9- 12 .

The seniors held a roast, boogied at their exclusive dance, wore autographed T-shirts, and enjoyed Senior Week at the end of the year. The climax to the year was the great and uni¬ que right of legally skipping school on Sneak Day. The grandest senior privilege, of course, reserved for those who passed, was graduation. Early dismissal time for lunch allows seniors more leisure time to speak with their friends and eat. KIMBERLY BARNETT PAYNE JONATHAN FOSTER PERRY KENNETH WAYNE PETERSON MARK CHRISTIN PETERSON Seniors 101 Focus: Cowgirl Susan Meek Although she could be experimenting with breeding cattle, Susan Meek merely performs an experiment in chemistry class. Going unnoticed, Susan Meek had a very active life. Her time revolved around the farm on which she lived, the livestock market and various social activities. Susan was very active in 4-H. She showed sheep, steers and heifers through the 4-H. She was also a member of the livestock judging team, participated in public speaking, and modeled her own sewing in fashion shows. Living on the farm, Susan had the op¬ portunity to raise her own cattle to sell. She also worked for her father in the Pulaski Livestock Market and worked on the farm raking hay, giving shots to the lambs and performing other farm chores. Susan was very involved in church and other religious groups. She was a mem¬ ber of the I.C.F. throughout high school. As a member of Draper Presbyterian Church Susan taught 1-3-year-olds Sun¬ day School. After high school Susan planned to go to Tech and major in Home Economics. After college she hoped to become a home extension agent. DONNA HOPE PIERCE — Drama Club 9; I.C.F. 10; Literary Magazine 12; Science Club 12; N.H.S. 11-12; Cheerleader 9-12; Va.

Lori Campbell, an eager senior, started her college studies during the summer of 79. Through Car- son Newman’s College Exploratory program, she attended classes in In¬ troduction to the Bible and General Psy¬ chology. She made friends with the college students who attended these classes with her. She also received college credit for the classes which will be used when she attends Carson Newman College after graduation in June. Her five weeks at Carson Newman College proved very beneficial in that she learned a great deal about what to expect from life in the future. Lori was very busy in high school, tak¬ ing such subjects as Advanced Gram¬ mar. Playing the clarinet in both the Golden Cougar Marching Band and the Concert Band left Lori with very little spare time. She was still able to maintain a grade point average of no less than 3.5 which kept her included as a member of the National Honor Society. She was an editor of the school literary magazine and participated on the Pulaski County High School track team as a high jumper for three years of her high school career. For Lori, involvement was essential to hap¬ piness. Practice makes Perfect! In order to better prepare herself for track season, Lori Campbell high jumps. Seniors 105 RONDA DALE SCOTT RHONDA GAIL SELTZ KIMBERLY ANN SEMONES TEENA MARIE SEXTON Gibas Chosen Junior Miss Connie Gibas was a highly dis¬ tinguished member of the senior class. From nine contestants she was chosen to represent Pulaski County during the year and to compete in the State Junior Miss Pageant. Judging at all levels was based on several qualities — mental alertness, judges’ interviews, poise, appearance, fitness, creative and performing arts, and scholastic achievement. At the local level Connie was the winner of the award for scholastic achievement. After winning at the local level, Connie and her chaperone Margaret Sullivan at¬ tended the exciting state Junior Miss competition held in Roanoke. During the small amount of free time they had, they were entertained at the Barn Dinner Theatre and at a banquet. Connie en¬ joyed her week at the competition. She also enjoyed meeting many people as a result of being chosen Pulaski’s Junior Miss. Junior Miss contestants must participate in talent competition.

Students of numerous diverse nationalities were present in the halls and classrooms in 1980. Germans, Swiss, Iranians, and others attended class here, causing quite a stir of interest among the natives. Korean Dong Hyo Sin moved to America and subsequently to Pulaski County near the middle of June 1979. Business demands on his father necessitated his family’s move to America. Dong found school very dif¬ ficult, especially English and Government classes. He received help from those around him, but at times he felt homesick. Eighteen-year-old Dong did not speak English very well, but could read and write it adequately. He acquired a job at the Pulaski Market which he described as “okay.” Dong stated that the countrysides of his native Korea and Virginia were very similar. They were both very pretty. Dong enjoyed sports, especially karate, and he planned to become an accountant. m Korean native Dong Hyo Sin may not understand spoken English, but he knows a camera when he sees one. ROSA LEE STONE JEFFREY ALAN STOUT DARYEL LYNN STUMP GINA ANNETTE SULLIVAN Seniors 109 Students Ascertain Genres Once again this year 17 seniors elec¬ ted to have an exclusive class, Advanced Placement English. In this learning ex¬ perience, students studied in depth such novels as Heart of Darkness, The Reivers, All the King’s Men, and The Stranger. They also learned the art of properly composing the critical essay. For a two-week period, these lucky seniors had an essay due every other day. Although these continuous essays caused many headaches, the student soon discovered that he could write an essay as quickly as he could make kool- aid. Perhaps the most enjoyable events of the class were Miss Steele’s vocabulary tests. Students learned that words were fun. For example, the student learned words and phrases with which he could become a bon vivant and a connoisseur. One could get into his barouche and travel to a fancy restaurant. If the en¬ trepreneur were his friend, he might receive discounts on the borscht, bouillabaisse, desiccated scuppernong, or piccalilli served to satisfy his hunger while he waited for the main course.

STEVEN FRANK WARDEN — V.I.C.A. 12. Holt Becomes The Cla ss of ’80 may have noticed someone running around in their midst their senior year that hadn’t been there before. That was Paige Holt. Paige plan¬ ned to start college early; she therefore needed to graduate from high school early. Her very full schedule included German III, Government, Trig, Chemistry, and Advanced Studies. Her father was a Methodist minister so Paige’s life was subject to frequent moves. She transferred to Wytheville in Early Senior her Sophomore year so Paige had a long trip to school everyday during her last year at P.C.H.S. Paige ' s spare time was filled with various activities. She enjoyed building large model airplanes and horticulture was a favorite hobby, and of course she was always busy with homework. She had several pets including a poodle named Christy, and a cat named Docile, who was anything but. Time is of the es sence. Paige Holt spends spare moments studying history.

Her friendly smile and pleasant voice greeted the famished and usually impatient lunch crowds. She kept the a la carte moving with quick calculations. Not only was Ruth an active cafeteria worker, but she also took part in various other activities. She served as president of the Pep Club and was a member of the National Honor Society. Maintaining her grades was a challenge. Her courses proved difficult, including physics and calculus. A valuable part of the yearbook staff, Ruth devotedly worked sixth period every day with Mrs. Hillman.. Like any other student, she still found time for celebrating the arrival of weekends. Priceless a la carte worker, Ruth McMullin, makes a quick computation to keep the sometimes very long line moving. Confusion usually prevails, but Ruth enjoys her daily job.

Members of the committee, chosen from U.S. Government classes early in the fall, hotly debated issues that would affect the en¬ tire senior class. At other times the mood was quiet and suppressed as the mem¬ bers shivered in the drafty commons area. Among the issues decided upon by the committee were the design for senior an¬ nouncements and the date for the Senior Roast. Early in the year members decided to spotlight a “Senior of the Week.” Chosen at random, this senior won a candy bar and a carnation. Mr, Harry DeHaven sponsored the Steering Committee with Senior Counselor Mr. Dale Conrad and twelfth grade principal Mr. Elmer Huff often assisting him. Class officers Terry Guynn, Everett Grubb, Von Beamer, and Lisa Ratcliffe, presided over the meetings. Throughout the year the Steering Committee s trove to accomplish its goal of bringing the class together as a whole. Held in December, the Senior Roast was considered to be an overall success with more than one hundred persons at¬ tending. A New Orleans style Mardi Gras Dance was scheduled for February 2. Free admittance, food, and music provided by 7Q proved to be an un¬ beatable combination for bored and broke seniors. In addition to this, the Committee sponsored the annual blood- mobile, Senior T-shirts, and Senior Week. Seniors 117 “Outstanding Seniors” Finally Abolished Unable to resolve the six-year-old con¬ troversy surrounding the method of selecting “outstanding seniors,” mem¬ bers of the class of eighty opted to abolish the group. This decision was by no means unanimously made, but a ma¬ jority of the seniors felt that little honor resulted from being named “outstanding” by mere balloting of one ' s classmates. Eliminating “outstanding senior designations left a void; and members of the steering committee, working with the officers and advisor of the class, decided to substitute senior superlatives for out¬ standing seniors. These selections could be, they felt, legitimately based on nothing more than popularity. That deci¬ sion made, the officers turned to the task of choosing areas to which seniors would be named. For years, no senior superlatives had been chosen. The categories, therefore, allowed con¬ siderable freedom since there were no precedents to uphold. MOST DEPENDABLE Rocky Cullop and Pat Bane prove that they are always available when someone needs them. MOST BASHFUL Aw . . . gee! Helen Luttrell and Curtis Trail exhibit the shyness which earned them the most bashful” title. MOST HAPPY-GO-LUCKY A piggyback ride depicts the carefree attitude of C.B. Burnette and Rhonda Seitz. MOST COMICAL Charlie Brown and Billie Boyles find almost everything hilarious, even each other. 118 Seniors MOST LIKELY TO SUCCEED A doctor? A lawyer? Even being a judge is a possibility for Tim Stanley and Nancy Harmon. MOST POPULAR Perry Reese and Tammy Dowdy are as popular at school as some crooks pictured in the post office. CUTEST Karen Farmer and Chris Turley seem too “cute” to resist. MOST TALKATIVE Joe Marshall and Donna Pierce never have a peaceful moment. Telephones are their friends. Seniors 119 BEST ALL AROUND Mike Lindsey and Tori Croslin, involved in everything, show that they are, indeed, well rounded students. MOST INTELLIGENT Tim Jones and Jo Ellen Napier enjoy reading another textbook — one down, five to go. MOST OUTGOING Anthony Young and Ginger Foy ambitiously leave the school to enter the real” world. MOST ACTIVE IN SCHOOL EVENTS Jon Perry and Ruth McMullin decide which events were most exhausting. 120 Seniors BEST ACTOR AND ACTRESS Ma rie Reid and Jim Gloster exhibit their dramatic talents on stage each year. MOST ORIGINAL Lee Gooch and Connie Gibas strive for unmatched mannerisms which is a hopeless cause. BEST DRESSED Sue Thompson and Aaron Crouse lead their classmates in current fashion and neat looks. Senior Superlatives Selection Difficult After considerable debate, class of¬ ficers and senior steering committee members produced a list of twenty-four categories of superlatives. The group then turned to the tasks of preparing the lists and printing ballots. Those tasks completed, seniors voted through government classes, the only course restricted to seniors. For days seniors walked the halls, heads buried behind the “mysterious” ballots and mumbled, “No, I don’t think he’s funny!” Do you know who he voted ‘best personality’??” and other ap¬ propriate nonsense. It was, to say the least, difficult to narrow one’s choices to a mere forty- eight students from a class of four hun¬ dred and fifty. Ultimately, however, the deadline arrived and seniors submitted their ballots. MOST DIGNIFIED Renee Wiley and Mark Roop always retain their nobility when something irritates them. Seniors 121 MOST SCHOOL SPIRIT Spirit, spirit and more spirit! Penny Haga and David Pugh give P.C.H.S. all they’ve got. MOST ARTISTIC Creating masterpieces, Debbie Mitchell doodles with magic markers while Patrick Simpson devises shapes from construction paper. First Senior Then began the most formidable aspect of choosing senior superlative winners — counting the votes. Mathem atical probabilities predicted staggering possibilities of combinations, but these were disregarded. Counting Superlatives Roster Chosen was the only preoccupation of the class officers and other seniors who assisted. When the ballots were all finished, win¬ ners were announced and asked to report to the Choir Room for pictures. MOST ATHLETIC Athletic versatility and fine-tuned skills are strong points for Gary Clark and Trina Pain¬ ter. BEST PERSONALITY Amy Hemmings and Mike Chrisley offer a handshake in hopes of becoming better acquainted. 122 Seniors BEST DANCERS Robert Webb shows interest in the new dance step Wanda White is showing to him. BEST LEADERS This way!” “No, that way!” Everett Grubb and Terry Guynn have trouble deciding which way to go. Only Forty-Eight Seniors Named Members BEST LOOKING Carol Guthrie and Chuck Tickle pause to check their reflec¬ tions in a mirror. MOST MUSICAL Sandy Bennett and Chris Tickle demonstrate musical abilities, each with a unique style. Seniors 123 MHM Members of the faculty and staff focused on educating the entire student body and providing students with adequate facilities and materials for education. The faculty was not only responsible for education of a practical nature. They provided stu¬ dents with the opportunity to develop various interests, such as music, sports or dramatics. Thus, the staff helped the stu¬ dents increase their knowledge and to mature. � V- Beside her painting, the focal point of the ad¬ ministrative waiting area, Mrs. Lyndall Mason focuses her attention on the camera.

From there she went to Emory and Henry College and received her B.A. in English. The big year was 1945 when she started teaching English, Civics, General Business, Physical Education, and coaching basketball at Draper High School. While at Draper she took time out to get married to George Armbrister. They had two children, Michael and Mary Ann. After her children were born, Mrs. Armbrister went back to teaching at Pulaski High School for one year. Then Dublin High School got lucky and got her for seventeen years. When Pulaski and Dublin consolidated in 1975, Mrs. Armbrister went with them, and she has been teaching Advanced Grammar and English Literature ever since. When she was not at school, Mrs. Armbrister enjoyed sewing, cooking, knitting, playing bridge, and crewel work. She was active in the Presbyterian Church in her hometown of Draper. During a total of thirty-two years of teaching, Mrs. Armbrister has made a great contribution to many students who were within the walls of her classroom. Staff 127 Mechanics, Who was K4HZS? One might not have known the face behind the voice. It was Mr. McNeely! A talented mechanics teacher, fondly called “Mr. Bill” by his students, he devoted his spare time to ham radios. Mr. McNeely had been a licensed operator of ham radios since 1957. He had talked to people from all over the world; some of the better-known people were Senator Barry Goldwater and Arthur Godfrey. He met with a group every Sunday evening and talked regularly with a man in Georgia. Ham radios were not his only interest. Mr. McNeely, who made his home in Barren Springs, had a long history in mechanics. His jobs ranged from army to Hudson Chevrolet mechanic. He even helped set up the mechanics shop. He also had a special interest in Studebakers. Mr. McNeely’s car was usually difficult to fit into with his radio equipment and family. Many of his students felt affectionate toward “Mr. Bill.” He showed great patience in helping his students learn about mechanics. He welcomed a changed class format this year. Girls were allowed in his class for the first time. He felt the girls tamed the boys in class. His students had deep respect for one of the most understanding and helpful teachers in the school.

Miss Emma Gallimore Likes Home, Work, Snuffy Smith What was teaching high school like? Apparently it must have been rewarding or Miss Emma Gallimore would not have been in her thirty-fifth year of teaching. She had attended Radford College and decided to go into teaching because of the opportunity involved. Miss Gallimore had always taught in Pulaski County, making her home in Pulaski. Being named head of the math pod might not have been her dream as a little girl born in Cripple Creek, Virginia, but she seemed to enjoy the position. Miss Gallimore felt this was a great respon¬ sibility, especially with the new minimum competency requirements. In addition to teaching, Miss Gallimore has made many contributions outside of the classroom. She has been both local and district president of the Education Association, sponsored the S.C.A. and worked with the Beta Club. Miss Gallimore was not all work and no play. She enjoyed restoring her sixty-five- year-old house, traveling, gardening and doing church work. On a typical Sunday afternoon she may have read, visited, traveled, or gone to church. Wherever Lois Southern MikeSowder she was, she kept busy. Only one month of the year did Miss Gallimore get a vaca¬ tion. Like everyone else, she had her likes and dislikes about school. One aspect that she liked was the opportunity available each year to meet new people, but she felt the size of Pulaski County High hampered individual relationships with students and teachers. Of course, Miss Gallimore enjoyed the pleasure of teaching math, which had always been her favorite subject. Unknown to many, her favorite person was Snuffy Smith. She felt that our school was “a typical large school population in which the great majority are fine responsible citizens.” The school should be honored at such a high compliment from someone as in¬ telligent and experienced as Miss Emma Gallimore. Staff 131 Up, down, and behind” is the order in which David Handwork juggles three rubber balls behind his back. Mr. David Handwork, the World of Communications teacher, was originally from the suburbs of Philadelphia. He went to college at V.P.I. and S.U. and ma¬ jored in architecture and industrial arts. He became interested in photography during an architecture class at Tech. His goal at P.C.H.S. was to give his students the opportunity to experience varied course offerings in the World of Communications. Some examples of these w ere drafting, photography and Round spheres are used by Mr. Handwork when practicing the basic techniques of the art of juggling. printing. Mr. David Handwork’s first job teaching was in Roanoke last year. He taught there for half a year. This was his first full year teaching, and he seemed satisfied with the results. Mr. Handwork was a juggler, having begun the hobby about six months before school started. Mr. Handwork learned the basics. From that stage it just took prac¬ tice. A friend had first interested Mr. Handwork in the complexities of juggling.

Ad¬ ministrators and members of the school board also did a great deal to increase school spirit. Mr. Dewey Wilson went into great detail when he instructed students in the making of Cougar paws. The school board provided funds for painting Cougar paws on the road leading to the school. Mr. Dewey Wilson, principal, was responsible for activities and functions of the entire school. He spent many hours meeting visitors, conferring with parents, and counseling students. Mr. Wilson’s major concerns were improving the quality of education and planning events at the school. Mr. Robert Riley, vice-principal of the vocational building, coordinated the various activities of the faculty and stu¬ dents participating in vocational classes. In addition to being responsible for the vocational students and staff, Mr. Riley was also concerned with the care of the equipment throughout the vocational building. Mr. Elmer Huff served as sub-school principal of the senior class. Mr. Huff’s many duties included preparing marching and seating charts for gradua¬ tion and counseling seniors. He was also responsible for evaluating school curricula. Mr. Carl Lindstrom, sub-school prin¬ cipal of the eleventh grade, also served as the school’s athletic director. He spent many hours scheduling competitions for the various teams and hiring officials for these events. Mrs. Majella Myers had a great many duties this year. She served as sub¬ school principal for the sophomore class, and she was also in charge of attendance procedures. Mrs. Myers was also respon¬ sible for students activities; she chaperoned many school hops, dances, and school activities. Mr. Ray Dunavant was sub-school principal of the freshman class; he was responsible for the students and activities of the largest class in the school. Mr. Dunavant was also responsible for the maintenance of the building and campus. 134 Staff In order to patrol the halls during students’ lunch periods, Mr. Huff and Mr. Dunavant dine at 11:30.

Focus: Personnel Two of the first things freshmen and visitors noticed were the cleanliness of the building and the well-balanced but delicious meals. Our kitchen was equip¬ ped with the most modern equipment and the most efficient workers. Under the direction of Louise Holliday, the cafeteria staff worked from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. to prepare meals for the students. To show our gratitude to the people who cooked and cleaned for 2,200 peo¬ ple, we sponsored a “staff appreciation day’’ on which we honored these people. Our custodial staff was also an important part of the system. They worked two shifts, one from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. and another from 3:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. The custodians did an excellent job keeping our school tidy and presentable. Leon Clark headed the custodial staff. He had been with the School Board since 1948. Mr. Clark was married and had three married daughters. When interviewed, Mr. Clark said he loved his job and one of the most satisfy¬ ing things about his job was seeing the school clean — even if it was only for a short period. He also commented that the most exciting moment in his career was, when at the former P.H.S., the annual was dedicated to him and he received a standing ovation. Some of Mr. Clark’s hobbies were watching basketball, football, baseball and tennis on televison. He had little time for attending games since he held another job at Virginia Maid Hosiery. He also listened to the games on the radio. When asked if students became more or less tidy over the years, he declined to comment, but did say there were “always a few.” Head custodian Mr. Leon Clark celebrates the thirty-second anniversary of his employment in the Pulaski County School System. He still remembers the day he was hired — February 14, 1948. 136 Staff Daytime custodians Frank Baldwin, Leon Clark, Eugene Thornton and Howard Lottier take a break from their busy schedules. “Miss Lucy” Adams devotes much of her time to decorating the teachers’ lounge.

Staff 137 By utilizing the opportunities offered them, students became closer to one another and experienced a sense of pride in their school and in themselves. Stu¬ dents met with a number of opportunities for involve¬ ment in the school and community. Clubs, sock hops, drama productions, music, athletic events and jobs of¬ fered students enjoyment as well as involvement with others. Regardless of what opportunities individuals took advantage of or what their interests were, each had some role in P.C.H.S. life and helped to improve it. 138 Student Life Student Life 139 Mondays are not good for much else but sleeping.

The decline of disco in the new decade is evidenced by the discotheque changing its name to simply The Depot and adopting a slightly different musical format. Sad Monday Morning Blues Overlap Boring Tuesdays rings arrive. Deon Campbell and Nancy Johnson Monday morning crept up upon most students unexpectedly. The harsh ringing of the alarm clock brought sound sleepers to a startled awakening and a hard reality. Others, who did not own alarm clocks, silently rolled over in bed, wondered why they had awakened, and realized with a cringe that it was Monday. Stifled yawns and red sleepy eyes greeted friends and the smiles of first period teachers. “Goooood Morning class,” beamed the teachers sar¬ castically. A few mumbles and a threat of mutiny were the only replies. The student body, however, came alive during lunch time. Holding up the walls and leaning against the I.M.C. railings came naturally to the students and provided a chance to “check out the prospects”. Noon produced no lasting effects, though; and by the time sixth period rolled around, heads were nodding to sleep in the back of the classroom. Tuesday always seemed to have less of an impact than Monday. The remain¬ der of the sleepy Monday blues were shaken off as plans were laid out for the rest of the week. Being neither the first nor the last day of the week, Tuesday, existed in a state of limbo. Girls’ volleyball, and boys’ wrestling and basketball games were highlights of Tuesday. Those struck with disco fever danced to the sounds at the Disco Depot which allowed teens in on Tuesdays although disco was on the decline. Monthly club days provided stu¬ dents with a brief respite from classes and involved them with various organiza¬ tions throughout the school.

Student Life 141 Wednesday—Over the Hump; Thursday—Homestretch Seen Students viewed Wednesday with little or no excitement, teachers with even less because it meant another weekly faculty meeting. Wednesday, however, was the middle of the week; and students, shak¬ ing off the last remnants of a tiresome Monday and Tuesday, began to focus on their school work. Both upperclassmen and underclassmen had term papers to worry about, along with the usual homework assignments. This was not all that occupied their minds. Upcoming sports events, dances, and plans for the weekend required thought, also. Players psyched themselves up in preparation for the games. At times it seemed as if the whole world were converging on one point at the same time, and many found themselves wishing for a thirty-six-hour day. Thursday was also a rather hectic day for many people at the school. English, math, and various other tests needed to be studied for, but at least they were a day away. The band could be seen marching in the student parking lot either fighting the wind, sweating under the af¬ ternoon sun, or dodging cars. The large ninth grade and junior varsity football teams had games to play that night. Spirits were high on Thursday because there was only one more day to go before the weekend and a chance to break away. By Thursday, most students and teachers had become philosophical. Either they had only to put the cap on an all right week to rest for a couple of days, or they had only to endure six more hours of torment before they could rest. Neither alternative was as bad as it would have been earlier in the week during Monday and Tuesday. Fifties-day participant Carol Guthrie appears to be puzzled by some bewildering physics problems.

It crept up on students and teachers not unexpectedly, but with a slow and steady pace. The other days were seemingly insignificant in com¬ parison. People waited, their muscles tense, their minds excited with plans for the weekend. The days were counted off one by one as if it were the last week of school: five, four, three, two, Friday! Friday, that magical day of the week when everyone, teachers included, was in a good mood, hit the school with the impact of a Kiss concert. It came and went quickly; but while it lasted, students made the most of it. Varsity basketball and football games were a favorite attrac¬ tion when they weren’t cancelled by the rain or snow. Sock hops after the games, because of the two dollars admission fee and the quality of the band engaged, were a source of continued speculation. Weekends were spent recuperating. 144 Student Life Varsity cheerleader Kathy Palmer confers with the Cougar (Sandy Bennett) during a break in the game.

Aija Putkonen was a junior from Finland. She came from a large city and found the simple life here quite different. She played basketball, snowskiied, read and wrote. She “loved America and the frien¬ dly, outgoing people.” Alexandra Sahonero was a sophomore from a big city in Venezuela. There the teachers, not the students, changed classes. All classes were re¬ quired, and all students in the classes were the same age. Alexandra enjoyed drawing and swimming. Marcello Urio was a junior from Swit¬ zerland. He enjoyed playing the piano, snow skiing, tennis, soccer, and swim¬ ming. In Switzerland, more kids rode mopeds because one could not get a driving license until he was eighteen. He said that his experience in America was “an opportunity.” Sebastian Cording was a junior from Germany. There people protested and voiced their opinions more openly. Here people were more friendly. He enjoyed playing tennis, soccer, and chess, and reading in his leisure time. Like the exchange students, some of our students traveled to a foreign country. This past summer fourteen students and their chaperones, John and Jackie Freeman, traveled to Germany, Swit¬ zerland, and Austria for ten days. The group arrived in Munich, Ger¬ many, Tuesday morning, July 3rd. There they toured the city by bus and saw the Olympic Stadium, Olympic Park, Nymphenburg Palace, and ended the tour by going to the Marianplatz to see the famous Glockenspiel. That evening, the group visited the Hofbrauhaus for a typical German “night out.” (ABOVE) Athlete Mark Cox dreams at the Olympic Stadium in Munich, Ger¬ many, which was the sight of the 1972 Winter Olympic Games, (LEFT) Foreign dishes are sampled tentatively.

Student Life 147 Students Disco At Depot, Dance At Prom Whether it be through slow dancing or disco, this year students were offered many ways to dance the night away. For those who preferred a soft, romantic at¬ mosphere, there was the Junior-Senior Prom; but for those who craved the ex¬ citement of a night on the town, the Disco Depot provided a wonderful chance to get away from it all. In these ways many students spent their evenings par¬ ticipating in America’s favorite pastime . . . Dancing! Prom 79 marked a very special occa¬ sion for those juniors and seniors who at¬ tended. However, there was much to be done before the Prom could be a success. As a result of this, many stu¬ dents and faculty members spent much of their free time during the week before Prom decorating the gym. Finally, after hours of preparation, the big day arrived. On April 28 students entered the gym and were immediately filled with excitement and anticipation. With the band, “Power Play,” setting the mood, students dreamed and danced under a canopy of silver stars as Prom 79 truly became a “Book of Dreams.” In the Spring of 1979 another dream came true for many P.C.H.S. students as the Disco Depot opened its doors for the first time. Each Tuesday on Teen Night, students flocked to the Depot to spend the night dancing away their cares while listening to the most popular disco sounds around. The Disco Depot was im¬ mediately accepted and before long became a popular hangout for area stu¬ dents.

Focus: Many Recreational Interests With a large student body and faculty, many different types of hobbies were in evidence. Some hobbies were purely for pleasure; others were challenging or physically demanding. Unusual among the hobby enthusiasts at Pulaski County, Barry McLawhorn en¬ joyed the dangers and thrills of mountain climbing. Faculty adventure-seekers Jeanne and “Tinker” Hillman filled their leisure hours sky-diving, while dirtbiking was Mr. Bob McGinley’s favorite hobby for releasing tension and frustration. While many hobbies were individual and extra-curricular, others were group- oriented and, though extra-curricular, were more closely related to the school. Many Pulaski County students found out¬ lets for their creativity and “leisure” time by participating in drama. The P.C. Players rehearsed their fall production, “God’s Trombones,” only a month before the October 19th premiere. They found their hobby demanding but enjoyable.

County residents had been waiting weeks for the game to start. At the kickoff, Cougar pride was in the air along with the football, and the Bobcats fell victim to the attack. During the week before the Radford game, excitement grew as each day passed. On Friday students showed their spirit by wearing their “crazy” hats; and when time for the pep rally rolled around, the gymnasium came alive with the com¬ bined spirit of the students and faculty. Class partisanship, formerly a prerogative of pep rallies, was forgotten in a wave of enthusiastic support for the football team. Banners and signs prepared by groups and individuals urged the Cougars to vic¬ tory in the “greatest cat fight in the New River Valley.” The enthusiasm was infec¬ tious — many students carried the pep rally fever back to class. Even community businesses showed their support for the school and the new coach by displaying decorations in the windows of their stores. “Big things were expected from the Cougars on the Friday night of the Radford game, and they gave their fans just what they wanted: a victory.” Tremendous team effort was shown by the Cougars as they defeated Radford 13-0. Coach Joel Hick’s first victory as head coach was one of the most impor¬ tant to the team. A pass to Gary Clark put the first six points on the scoreboard, and an interception by Perry Reese set up the second Cougar touchdown. The defense, as well as the offense, displayed their talents throughout the game. It was, in Coach Joel Hick’s opinion, a tremendous defensive effort that held the scoreless Bobcats at bay. Punting was another factor in the Cougar victory. He also cited the secondary’s firmness in forcing the Bobcats to attempt to run the ball instead of resorting to an air attack. Whatever the reasons, it was a vic¬ tory not soon to be forgotten by Pulaski County fans. Excitement filled the school days after the game. County residents bragged to their co-workers, and the football team prided itself on a fine showing of strength and sportsmanship. Pep rallies help to boost school morale.

First Day Reflects Each Day The first day of school was a hectic and confusing day for the freshmen and a very exciting day for all the students of Pulaski County High School. Almost all students congregated in the halls of the academic or vocational building. Socializing and eating were the most fre¬ quent happenings in the Commons Area. Freshmen tried to find their way around the circular building, while seniors tried to get lost. (The “senior rail” was the best place to find a misplaced senior.) Lost or not, all students, including seniors, had to be in class the first ten minutes of every period. The dreaded “dead time” or “no movement time” was designed for the purpose of catching those people who were skipping class. Anyone caught anywhere he was not supposed to be was given after-school detention. The offen¬ ders usually missed the morning an¬ nouncements given by S.C.A. President Tammy Dowdy. The hustle and bustle usually started in the morning in the Commons Area. The unloading of buses brought more people, making that area more lively. The feeling of chaos often extended over to the vocational building where special things were happening every day. Horticulture had its plants, auto body its cars, drafting its blue prints; and each department tried to bring sense to it all. The business department hummed and whirred with calculators and computers. As the year progressed, that first day became the focal point from which every succeeding day evolved. The confusion subsided a bit and freshmen especially became more confident, but day one was prophetic in more ways than one. S.C.A. president Tammy Dowdy’s voice is a familiar sound every morning at 9 A.M. during announce¬ ments.

Rings and Pageant Highlight the Fall The fifth annual Miss Pulaski County High School Pageant took place on Sep¬ tember 22, 1979, before a full house in the Little Theatre. Sixty contestants, sponsored by various classes, were es¬ corted by four young men, Hal Ward, Wayne Hurst, Jim Gloster, and Philip Hearn. Mr. Bob Whytal was the Master of Ceremonies for the event, the theme of which was “Masquerade.” In keeping with the theme, the contestants carried masks upon which appeared the contes¬ tants’ numbers. For musical entertainment Chris Tickle, David Jones, Jon Perry, and Philip Hearn played the piano. As the pageant came to a close, there was an aura of anticipation and suspense. Mr. John Newberry crowned the winner, Tonya Richmond. First runner-up was Carol Guthrie and second runner-up was Kym Davidson. The night, which began with sixty beautiful young women, had produced one winner, Miss Pulaski County High School. While the beauty pageant involved all classes, the ordering of class rings was reserved entirely for juniors. They dis¬ covered, however, that this was not an easy task due to the wide selection of stones, cuts, metals and styles, including a new addition, the dinner ring. These rings became the focus of the juniors’ attention. The familiar cry of “Let me see! Let me see!” echoed through the locker banks. The new dimension added by the ciass ring made the juniors of¬ ficially upperclassmen. Student Life 157 Reorganized Homecoming Court Includes Prince, Princess, Duke, Duchess Titles Homecoming week of 79 was full of anticipation. Many activities and contests were sponsored throughout the week. The Pep Club set a different dress code for each day. The halls were filled with posters and streamers expressing the students’ spirit. In preparation for the main event Fri¬ day night, excited students flocked to the gym for a pep rally. Over an hour of loud chants, cheers, skits, music and competi¬ tions helped raise the team’s spirit even more. The floats were then displayed. V.I.C.A. won first place in the club mini-float competiton with “Coop ’Em Cougars.” In the class divisions, sur¬ prised sophomores won the mini-float competition; the juniors came in first with the showcase competition, while the seniors took the locker bank and spirit chain competition. Adding to the excitement of Friday night’s game, a victory sign, made by members of V.I.C.A., was burned at half¬ time. After a win of 20-9, students then looked forward to the Homecoming dance Saturday night. All students took part in the selection of the Homecoming Court. After seniors chose twenty-six girls and twenty-five boys from the class of ’80, each student cast his vote for one girl and one boy. From this, the Court of 79 was chosen. Couples were paired according to the respective number of votes they received. They were introduced in alphabetical or¬ der by the girls’ names at both the game and dance. Instead of just a queen and king, the S.C.A. decided to title the first and second runners-up. Homecoming Queen 1979-80 was Tammy Dowdy. Perry Reese became Homecoming King. Terry Guynn and Anthony Young were Princess and Prince. Tonya Richmond and Daymond O’Dell were Duchess and Duke. Marilyn Hills, Homecoming Queen 1978-79, crowned Tammy Dowdy and Perry Reese. The dance continued suc¬ cessfully as P.C.H.S. students and their guests danced to the music of “Casper.” Crazy Hairdo Day gives Eddie Sullivan an oppor¬ tunity to show his multi-colored homecoming spirit.

In the graduating class of 79, as in previous classes, originality was not easily achieved. A senior dwelt on tradi¬ tions, making the past our present. The major tradition attended was “the beginning of the end.” Graduation was the end of our lives in high school. This was a mild form of death, with the expec¬ tation of new life to proceed from the mo¬ ment of graduation. A long list of memories lagged in the back of our minds: memories of good times and bad, memories of lifelong friends never to be forgotten. Though our present was really the past, the frills of senior life dis¬ tinguished our class as unique and suc¬ cessful. Graduation was a time of mixed emo¬ tions. Joy, fear of what was to come, ex¬ citement, and sadness permeated the graduates. They marched in, straight and proud, trying to be strong, for this was the END. After the initial death came the ex¬ pectations of a new life ahead. Our minds were focused toward the future. (LEFT) An exact fit of the traditional mortar board is a must.

Graduation a Happy Event but Expensive During their final year in high school, seniors were faced with a number of ex¬ penses. Seniors had to purchase a great amount of graduation paraphernalia. In the fall, representatives presented seniors with items traditionally associated with high school graduation. Before Christmas seniors placed orders for caps and gowns, graduation announcements, and calling cards. In addition to these things, many seniors also ordered thank-you notes, personalized cards, memory books, and senior keys. Besides graduation expenses, many seniors faced other types of expenses related to education. Seniors planning to attend college had to pay fees in order to take the S.A.T., A.C.T., or Achievement tests. For every senior and his parents, the year seemed to be filled with all types of expenses to be met and several purchases to be made. Dances, sockhops, athletic contests and choir, band, and drama performances required additional expenditures from seniors and underclassmen. Senior class vice-president Everett Grubb hands out literature on senior needs. From this, seniors will order their graduation outfits along with announce¬ ments and senior keys. Like an assembly line, seniors file past Mr. Bill Edmonds as he measures them for their caps.

In 1978 and 1979 a first-place national award has been awarded to Pulaski County F.B.L.A. ' ers. Members were present in San Francisco in 1978 and New Orleans in 1979 to ac¬ cept these awards. In 1977 a third-place national award was earned. Mrs. Kathryn W. Brockman organized the first March of Dimes walk six years ago at Pulaski High School. She continued her role until her retirement in 1979. The 18-kilometer Superwalk that was held on Saturday, March 31, was com¬ pleted by 793 walkers from the three area schools and the surrounding community. The total amount pledged on that day amounted to $22,349.25. The 1979 Superwalk was also most successful in that the community became more in¬ volved in other ways, as evidenced by Bob Hudson Chevrolet underwriting the cost of the 1979 walk. Local churches provided food, pop distributors donated beverages, and personnel from the Jaycettes served at the checkpoints. For safety, state and local police aided in keeping the walkers on the route in prescribed areas; rescue squads patrolled the route; and a local group—the New River Valley Amateur Radio Club—monitored the walk at the checkpoints and other areas throughout the walk. F.B.L.A.’ers were also involved in educational activities: F.B.L.A. members taught a class at the Radford Region Fall Workshop the past two years; attended the Region III MOD Orientation Meeting; assisted with the MOD Mother’s March; presented films to the Physical Education and Science Departments; presented wheelchairs to the clinic at Pulaski County High School; presented educational materials to local businesses for distribution; participated in “Count Pulaski Day”; provided an educational book to the school and county libraries; and provided $1,000 scholarships to senior students wishing to study medicine, nursing, medical social work, or professions related to maternal and newborn health. Tired feet and aching muscles are the effects of an eighteen kilometer walk. Student Life 163 Booster club members Dot Reed, Kermit Waller, Ray Burcham, and Bessie Tickle get ready for a large crowd and many sales of items to promote spirit. Athletic and Band Boosters Promote “Cougar Mania” Both Athletic and Band Booster Clubs helped in the promotion of “Cougar- mania.” There was not just a school spirit, but a county-wide spirit. Band boosters helped in the selling of hats, jackets, and candy bars. They also held a bazaar to raise money for the long journey to Florida, where the band par¬ ticipated in the De Soto Festival. Athletic boosters worked in the sale of baseball caps, coolers, and hassocks. They also took donations for square yards of carpet that would be used in car¬ peting the Field House. In addition, they sponsored banquets for all of the athletes and planned for the construction of a new baseball field. Some of the members from both groups were found making the long trips to far away ball games on commercial buses. The athletic booster members also sponsored the Monday night game films. The county slowly united into a “Cougar Craze” with badges, buttons, and paw T-shirts. County residents dressed in burgundy and gold suits on Friday nights. Others sported Cougar jackets, flags, hats, and the famous paw scarfs. The Boosters Clubs helped to en¬ courage the best spirit we have experien¬ ced in our school’s short history. Preparations are being made for a Christmas Bazaar by Robert Poff and Roger Dalton. 164 Student Life (ABOVE LEFT) Band Booster Club member Mrs. Harriet Berry sells toboggans to raise money for the Band’s trip to Florida.

Perry-Robin United in Mock Marriage In an effort to instruct students in the traditional method of joining a couple in marriage, the Family Living class spon¬ sored a Mock Wedding. The wedding and preparation for it were directed by Family Living teachers Mrs. Peggy Flem¬ mings and Mrs. Mary Kelly. The Hor¬ ticulture, Food Services, Printing, and Art Departments also aided in preparation for and production of the ceremony. Many members of the student body were invited to the Mock Wedding. Following the ceremony, a reception was held in the Commons Area; only mem¬ bers of the Family Living class attended. Those who participated in the ceremony and those who observed it learned a great deal about the marriage ceremony. United in mock marriage were Robin McDaniel and Perry Reese. The ceremony took place in the Little Theatre, and Cliff Jones performed the nuptials before the best-dressed group of stu¬ dents ever assembled in the theatre — proper dress was a requirement for en¬ trance, and getting out of class was worth even a tie!

Spon¬ sored by the F.B.L.A., the event was a fund-raising success. Seven couples were chosen by their classmates to com¬ pe te in the contest. They collected penny votes for two weeks prior to the dance. Two senior candidates, Perry Reese and Terry Guynn, finished the competition with the highest total. The sock hop followed a basketball game against Cave Spring. Energy carried over into the sock hop held in the Commons Area December 18. 7Q provided disco music for enthusiastic dancers. A highlight of the evening was the appearance of Santa Claus (who bore a strong resemblance to Mr. Donald Hylton). While students rested, the court mem¬ bers were introduced. The King and Queen were crowned by Mr. John New¬ berry. The remaining contestants enjoyed an evening of popularity among their friends. On the whole, it was a rewarding activity for participants, spectators, and the F.B.L.A. Queen Terry Guynn accepts her title modestly. Sock-hop music provided by 7Q fills the commons area.

During all three lunch periods, WPCH was on the air over the P.A. system in the Commons area. The station went on the air the last week in October, manned by the students from Mr. John Swope’s first semester radio production class. The station made an attempt to play music hitting at the tastes of a broad seg¬ ment of the student body — Southern rock, top 40, country, soul, and disco. The daily format rotated the types of songs played. The station was managed by seniors Mike Sheets, who has been heard on WBLB, and Kris King, program director. To simplify the broadcasting, the shows were recorded in advance and then aired during each lunch period. The only negative reaction to music during lunch came from faculty members who occasionally grumbled that it was difficult to confront “Pop Musik” and chili while dreading the return to class. Disc jockey Renee Callahan is better known to the listeners of WPCH as one of the sisters of love.” Seniors Mike Sheets and Kris King spend their fifth period radio production class taping shows for WPCH. 172 Student Life Members of the WPCH Staff Mike Sheets, Kris King, and Renee Callahan play back a tape to be used for a later show. ‘‘Nowhere on your dial” is exactly where WPCH can be found. This radio station p rovides great experience for those who are interested in radio broadcasting. Vocational Students Become People of Jobs Through different types of vocational programs incorporated into the P.C.H.S. curriculum, many students learned oc¬ cupational skills. The Business program instructed students in typing, accounting, stenography, and other related courses. The Agriculture and Industrial Arts Departments taught students the skills necessary for a career in some type of agriculture science; in this program courses ranged from Agricultural Science to Ornamental Horticulture. A major vocational program was the Trades and Industrial Education Program, which included several different career fields. The courses offered were auto body, auto mechanics, cosmetology, electricity, electronics, building maintenance mechanics, prac¬ tical nursing, service occupations, printing, and I.C.T. These programs provided classroom training as well as on-the-job training. Regardless of their interest, ranging from hair styling to wiring a house, most stu¬ dents were able to fulfill their career ambi¬ tions through one of the vocational programs. Students were able to achieve their career goals, and in doing so they were of great service to the community. Area residents often used the services of the students in auto body, auto mechanics, cosmetology, and other programs. Trades and Industrial Education classes were offered on two levels, enabl¬ ing students to grasp firmly concepts necessary to success in their respective areas the first year. Second year students polished skills and sought to gain job- entry-level abilities. Thus, the only limits upon a student’s progress were those he imposed himself, and the continuity provided enabled increased efficiency. Many Trades and Industrial courses provided an additional boon by allowing students to combine their interests and their school work. Particularly in auto mechanics and auto body, students were able to work on their own and friends’ cars — what better way to earn credit toward graduation?

Soon it will house many plants from the cold of winter which temporarily halted its completion. Greenhouse Built by Vocational Classes The Building Trades, Industrial Main¬ tenance, and Electricity classes com¬ bined their efforts to build another greenhouse. The purpose of building the new greenhouse was to remedy the over¬ crowded situation in the original greenhouse. In August, Building Trades began laying the foundation for the greenhouse. In September, Industrial Maintenance began the assembly of the metal work. The Electricity classes wired the building. In the final stage, the Building Trades and Industrial Main¬ tenance classes worked together to install the fiberglass windows. Long hours of skillful work have paid off for the Industrial Maintenance class; they proudly exhibit their work, the first side of the new greenhouse.

They were required to take five classes. Those interested in preparing for college often chose other college preparatory classes, such as ad¬ vanced English 9 or a foreign language.

Many chose to continue their studies in math and science, taking A heavy academic load requires extra hours of con¬ scientious students. Tracy Evans computes final figures to complete her physics assignment. algebra, geometry, and biology. Juniors were required to take English and American history. Students par¬ ticipating in the Advanced Studies 10 program took advanced courses in both English and history. A few students con¬ tinued in the study of science and took one of the most difficult courses offered — chemistry. Others with an avid interest in math or a desire to be well-prepared for college took trigonometry or math analysis, and some took both. Many seniors endeavored to take dif¬ ficult courses. Seniors were offered ad¬ vanced placement in English and biology and advanced studies in English and government. Those who wished to pur¬ sue further the study of math and science opted to take calculus and physics. 178 Student Life (LEFT) What strange experiments take place in psychology class?

Movies, dances, sports, dating, part-time jobs, bowling, skating, cruising, and eating remained students’ favorite night ac¬ tivities. There were several places in which students congregated. McDonald’s and Ray’s parking lots seemed always to be filled with students who did more socializ¬ ing than actual eating on a weekend night. Some students were considered less fortunate than others. Their evenings and sometimes entire weekends were spent on part-time jobs. In the end they seemed to be the luckier ones with experience un¬ der their belts and money in their pockets — at least for a while. News of the arrival of a good movie spread like wildfire through the student body, and everyone had to see the movie. Other students preferred more ac¬ tive entertainment and traveled to area bowling alleys or skating rinks. Sock hops add to the romancing of nightlife as students take time out from a disco beat to slow dance.

Bunny rabbits came in from the past, pirates traveled across land, doctors from the local hospital, and even two sailors took extra leave to be home for the special occasion. All these were members of the senior class or their dates who participated in the fun of dressing up for the first Senior Mardi Gras Dance. The Commons Area was completely changed from its normal attire. Streamers, colored paper, and a pinata helped to change the atmosphere. Music, smoke, and light effects were provided by 7Q radio station. As the night progressed, winners of the costume contest were announced. Perry Reese and Robyn Walker took first with their adorable bunny costumes. Glenn Pratt and Connie Cox won second dressed as Zorro and a Spanish lady. Both first and second place winners received a small pinata to take home. Af¬ ter the winners were announced, Perry and Glenn both took a stick and broke the pinata open to share its stuffings with the rest of the students. Policemen absent, Zorro, Glenn Pratt, patrols the dance with his Spanish lady, Connie Cox. Student Life 183 Valuable Spare Time is Fun Time For All At certain times during the school day, students had a break from the rigors of school work. Students enjoyed their “fun¬ time” in a variety of ways. Perhaps the most common way to spend this time was to lean against the walls or on the rails surrounding the I.M.C. and talk to friends. For the more adventurous, the sidewalks provided skateboard paths. Many stu¬ dents discovered that “physics was fun.” Others spent their time working for certain organizations within the school. On certain special days students had a greater amount of “funtime” than an or¬ dinary school day. Hat days, club days, and days on which pep rallies were held provided many opportunities for in¬ teresting activities. These breaks in the school day gave students time to enjoy themselves and prepare for the next assignment handed down from the teacher. Snow days were welcome to most of the students. Most people wanted the snow to fall, but seniors hoped there would be nothing to postpone graduation in May. When the snow came, everyone enjoyed a winter custom — the snowball battle. Even teachers managed to find time for playing in the snow. ■ y ft. (ABOVE) Chemistry labs are fun as Doug Dunavant learns. (BELOW) Broom beatings fun for David Smith?

As always, Levis really made the scene, and Dee Cees ' popularity climbed high on the most wanted list. And could you dig those designer jeans?! Gloria Vanderbilt, Calvin Klein, and Charlotte Ford made jeans chic. The style that was really beginning to make it was the “preppie style”. Some of those preppies really blew your mind—an alligator on almost every piece of clothing! It was quite easy to spot prep¬ pies! They often wore button down shirts, add-a-bead necklaces, designer jeans, alligator socks (if any at all), and Docksides or duck shoes, straight from the L.L. Bean catalogue. When the prep¬ pies really wanted to dress up, they wore wool or tweed suits and leather boots or some type of Bass shoes. You know, the preppies were really kind of brave; sometimes you saw them wearing the clothes nobody else dared to wear. They wore anything that would make someone respond to their attire with, “That guy is preppiness to the max!” But if you weren’t preppie, you didn’t worry about it. Walking through the halls was a real trip—little groups of preppies were everywhere you looked, but preppie wasn’t the only style around. For some people, preppie was not “it”. Unpreppies usually made the scene in vests, jeans (Levis of course), and tennis or track shoes, Nike most often. The characteristic that was common to both preppies and unpreppies was hair style. Anyone with any fashion sense had feathered hair. Really. Feathered hair was in. Kinky hair was also in; it was really tough. One might have seen a giant Q-tip walking down the hall at any given time. This year’s fads and fashions were far out and freaky. The thing to do was to keep making an impressive appearan ce and to avoid looking like a coma victim; it was exceptionally important to look fan¬ tastic instead of foul. Whether preppie or unpreppie, everybody tried to be cool and to make sure that he had “done good” as far as his style went. Like the students, the Cougar likes his alligators.

Student Life 187 Clubs Satisfy a Diversity of Interests A few clubs at P.C.H.S. allowed stu¬ dents with special interests to participate in a variety of activities. The Pep Club, Black Student Union, Chess Club, and Science Club provided students with like interests the opportunity to learn and have a good time. Pep Club, sponsored by Caroline Van- Sise and Evelyn Benson, was composed of students who had a great deal of school spirit and enthusiasm. Members boosted school spirit by sponsoring dress-up days, and by selling buttons, pom-poms, and other paraphernalia. At ballgames members were responsible for selling programs, and each week one lucky member had the privilege of being the Cougar mascot. The Black Student Union, sponsored by Mickey Hickman, promoted interest in Black history and encouraged students to participate in a number of school ac¬ tivities. The B.S.U. presented a program to the student body during Black History Week and presented the same program at Wytheville and New River Community Colleges. Students found membership in the club to be very educational, and the club enjoyed a successful year. The Chess Club, under the leadership of Dennis Folsom, enjoyed an eventful year. The club provided opportunity for both pleasure playing and competition. Every member enjoyed playing informal games, and several accomplished players competed in various tourna¬ ments: the local “Winter War” held in November, the December tournament in Crossville, Tennessee, and state and regionals in March. Members of the Science Club par¬ ticipated in a number of activities this year. Sponsor John Joseph, assisted by other science teachers, aided students in many scientific endeavors. Many mem¬ bers entered projects in the local science fair; winners then proceeded to the Western Virginia Regional Science Fair. Some members also attended the Virginia Junior Academy of Science held at the University of Virginia. At many meetings the club was addressed by visiting scientists. The club also con¬ tinued its work on the Nature Trail. Mem¬ bers enjoyed a very rewarding year.

Students who participated in F.C.A., I.C.F., N.H.S., S.C.A., or the Key Club found it rewarding to participate in service-oriented activities. The Fellowship of Christian Athletes was sponsored by Mrs. Louisa Chrisley, Mr. Tom Creeden, and Mr. Dale Conrad. Members of the club enjoyed discussions led by several guest speakers at many of the meetings. Many members spent a great deal of time working for the Salva¬ tion Army and collecting money for the special Olympics. The F.C.A. enjoyed a successful and rewarding year. The Interdenominational Christian Fellowship, sponsored by Mr. Philip Vickers also had a rewarding year. Mem¬ bers enjoyed films, talks given by various guest speakers, and participation in sing- alongs. The S.C.A., sponsored by Mr. John Newberry, served P.C.H.S. in many ways. In the fall, the S.C.A. sponsored the Homecoming Dance and the Beauty Pageant. Members also sponsored the Winter Formal. In the Spring, the S.C.A. and N.H.S. held the third annual Talent Show. The S.C.A. made this year en¬ joyable for the entire student body. The National Honor Society, spon¬ sored by Mrs. Evelyn Tate, Mrs. Carol Hurst, and Mrs. Edna Kennedy, serve d the school and community by par¬ ticipating in many worthwhile activities. In addition to sponsoring the Talent Show, the club also held a tea for all students who made all A’s and B’s. During Christmas, the club sponsored families by giving them Christmas presents. Stu¬ dents found membership in the club rewarding and enjoyable. This year the Key club was sponsored by Mr. Harry DeHaven and Mr. Dewey Wilson. This club was open to any stu¬ dent at the school. One of the club’s ma¬ jor responsibilities was the raising and lowering of the American Flag each day. Service clubs realized increased in¬ terest and enthusiasm from their mem¬ bers. Not only were there more “warm bodies,” but also more work.

Student Life 191 Lit. Clubs Inspire Students Creativeness Forensics Club, literary magazine, newspaper, and annual encouraged stu¬ dents in creative endeavors. These organizations provided students with the opportunity to participate in activities of a literary nature. The Forensics Club, sponsored by Miss Vada Boyd, promoted interest and competenpy in forensics arts. In Novem¬ ber winners of school competition par¬ ticipated in the E.C. Glass High School Invitational Tournament held in Lynchburg. In December school-wide competition was held to select partici¬ pants for the Virginia High School League district contest held in February. The club provided training and competitive oppor¬ tunities for those students who par¬ ticipated. With the support and direction of members of the English department, several students excelled in forensics. Inklings, the literary magazine, allowed students interested in composition, poetry, and art to compile a magazine. The staff, under the leadership of Mr. Patrick Irving, first selected a theme and solicited contributions from the student body, then laboriously selected, edited, and arranged the selections. A small group of dedicated students spent many hours preparing the magazine for publication, and each contributor was rewarded with the satisfaction of seeing his work in print. The school newspaper, the Cougar Prowler, was sponsored by Mr. Eugene Cram. The staff reported on a wide variety of activities held at P.C.H.S., and throughout the year featured many stu¬ dents and faculty members. Each nine weeks the staff took honor roll, and those who qualified had their names printed in the paper. Some of the most enjoyable features in the Prowler were the Christmas and Valentine greetings and the edition including senior baby pic¬ tures. Although producing the paper re¬ quired a great deal of time and effort, the staff was rewarded by the positive recep¬ tion the paper received from the student body. One member of the Cougar Pinnacle staff said the purpose of the annual was “to record the events and activities that occur at P.C.H.S. and to present them in an attractive way, thus filling the student body with good cheer.” And this was ex¬ actly what the staff did! Members of the Cougar Pinnacle staff, sponsored by Jeanne Hillman, worked diligently to produce an exciting, interesting, colorful yearbook. The staff met during fifth period each day and often for many hours after school. Producing the year¬ book was difficult and time-consuming, but all the effort seemed worthwhile when the 1980 Cougar Pinnacle was finally complete.

Student Life 193 ! Fine Arts Provide a Multitude of Talent Students with special interest in the arts participated in one of the bands, choirs, or art classes. These organizations provided enjoyment not only for partici¬ pants but also for the entire community. The marching, concert, stage, and symphonic bands, under the direction of William Propst, enjoyed a successful year. The marching band was comprised of approximately 160 members. Besides those who played instruments, there were also twenty-six members of the color guard. This year’s drum majors were Philip Hearn and Jon Perry. Friday night at football games, spec¬ tators were treated to a spectacular per¬ formance from the Cougar band. In addi¬ tion to playing at football games, the band also participated in the Virginia State Fair, Old Dominion Dixie Classic, and the Marching Bands of America competition. The concert and symphonic bands presented Christmas and spring con¬ certs. The bands also attended District Festival in the spring. The stage band played for many activities held at the school. Under the direction of Mont Quesen- berry, the three choirs at P.C.H.S., mixed choir, girls’ choir, and concert choir, par¬ ticipated in a number of activities. Each choir presented a Christmas and a spring concert. Many members also attended the Junior High Regional and the Senior High Regional. Some members of the concert choir participated in the All- Virginia Chorus and the Honors Choir. Members of this choir also enjoyed a spring trip to Six Flags over Georgia in Atlanta. Four levels of study in art were offered to interested students. In Art I students learned the fundamentals of art. In Art II students applied what they had learned in Art I and were able to paint for the first time. Art III gave students the opportunity to specialize in a particular medium. In Art IV students continued their special projects and began a study of art history. Any art student who wished to, was able to exhibit his work in the Radford show. A chapter of the National Art Honor Society was organized this year. Spon¬ sors were Mrs. Love and Mrs. Ireson. Members displayed their work in many places. The club also conducted a workshop for advanced elementary school students. (ABOVE) Students involved in Concert Choir provide enjoyment for live audiences.

' s Homecoming Float “Coop ' Em Cougars wins first place in the mini-float competition. Clubs Prepare Four clubs were composed of students who took certain vocational classes. The purpose of these clubs, D.E.C.A., V.I.C.A., H.O.S.A., and A.I.A.S.A., was to prepare members for leadership respon¬ sibilities and to encourage excellence in occupational skills. The Distributive Education Club of America, sponsored by Vicki Lawson, Gary McCoy, and Bob Hosp, was open to any student enrolled in a D.E. class. Members of the club enjoyed a suc¬ cessful year. They began the year with a fall rally held at Claytor Lake State Park. This activity allowed P.C.H.S. students to meet D.E.C.A. members from many other schools. In the fall, officers participated in training meetings in Wytheville and at Virginia Tech. D.E.C.A. members celebrated Christmas with a skating party and by decorating a float for the Christmas parade. The major activity in which mem¬ bers participated was a fashion show, which was enjoyable to both students and the public. The club ended a fine year with an employer-employee banquet. Members of the Pulaski County chap¬ ter of the Vocational Industrial Clubs of D.E. Students America, sponsored by Jim Gettys, par¬ ticipated in a number of activities during the year. Members from several V.I.C.A. clubs in the area attended the fall rally held at P.C.H.S. Club members were ac¬ tive in community work throughout the year. The club held a Christmas party for underprivileged children. This year was eventful for the members who par¬ ticipated in district and state competi¬ tions. A successful year ended with an employer-employee banquet. This year the Health Occupations Stu¬ dents of America Club was active in many community projects. Led by sponsor Nancy Sparks, members held a blood pressure clinic at the school. H.O.S.A. also aided V.I.C.A. with the Christmas party for underprivileged children. Club members participated in a variety of social activities: caroling during Christmas and a picnic in the spring. At the end of the year, members had the satisfaction of knowing they had im¬ proved their occupational skills. This year the American Industrial Arts Student Association was under new leadership. Mr. Handwork and Mr. Taylor were the new sponsors of the club. “Let the foot do the stomping with a snap” is the basic ideas as D.E.C.A. members wait to show off their float “Stomp the Eagles” in the Homecoming Pep Rally.

Service Clubs Provide for Community Several clubs at P.C.H.S. encouraged members to develop competence in their career interests and to promote personal and community responsibility and self¬ development. The F.F.A., F.H.A., H.E.R.O.-F.H.A. and F.B.L.A. provided students with the opportunity to par¬ ticipate in a wide range of personal and community activities. The Pulaski County Chapter of the Future Farmers of America, sponsored by Mr. C.D. Dishon, Mrs. Elissa Steeves, Mr. Mike Cox and Mr. Wythe Morris, began the year with a tremendous spirit of accomplishment; the club was selected as one of the six outstanding chapters in Virginia. Two club members, Ken Hall and John Kelley, attended the National F.F.A. convention to receive awards for the Pulaski County chapter. In December the club sold citrus fruit as a fund-raising project. During the year members par¬ ticipated in a variety of activities related to agricultural occupations. A major project for the F.F.A. was the Food for America program which described food produc¬ tion and agriculture to elementary stu¬ dents. The club banquet and awards program was the close to a very suc¬ cessful year. The Future Homemakers of America, under the leadership of Peggy Hemm- ings, Mary Kelly, and Nancy Hester, en¬ joyed an eventful year. Each Friday club members made hot dogs to sell at the home football games; proceeds were used to fund several act ivities. As a com¬ munity service, members visisted Fair- view Home and the children’s ward at Pulaski Community Hospital. At the close of the year, club members felt satisfied with the things they had accomplished during the year. H.E.R.O.-F.H.A. participated in a variety of community projects. The club was sponsored by Debbie Griffith and Mickey Weikle. The clubs activities cen¬ tered on serving the community. During the year members visited Fairview and Draper nursing homes, had a Christmas party for Salvation Army children, held a toy drive, and assisted with the March of Dimes Walk-a-thon. The club finished a very productive year with a banquet and awards program. The Future Business Leaders of America, sponsored by Brenda Hylton, was very active this year. Of their many organization projects, the most notable were visits to all the nursing homes in Pulaski and a trip to Joy Ranch, a home for orphans. As a fund-raising project, the club sponsored a dance at which the Snow King and Queen were crowned. The F.B.L.A. was exceptionally active in the March of Dimes campaign. F.B.L.A. members ended the year with the knowledge that they had contributed much to the improvement of the com¬ munity. 198 Student Life (LEFT) F.B.L.A. members Lisa Boyd, Sherry Hale, Mary Ann Akers, Sheila Goad, and Carolyn Linkous learn about the fascinating world of political science as they chat with Senator Danny Byrd.

Student Life 199 Whether as participants or spectators, almost every student was involved in sports. Individuals with special athletic talents, such as kicking a football a tremen¬ dous distance or expertly manipulating a basketball, and Cougar fans were brought together by spirit and pride.

Highlight of Season Defeat Of R.V.D. Champion The Varsity Baseball team began the 1979 season with high hopes of winning the Roanoke Valley District title again. They got off to an outstanding start, win¬ ning their first eight games. Their goals proved difficult to a cheive. A 6-3 loss to Franklin County made it tough on the Cougars. Injuries, errors, and mental mis¬ takes greatly affected the team. Injured pitcher Gary Proco was out of action for two weeks, while teammate Gary Flinchum was out the remainder of the season. Regardless of these problems, the Cougars defeated R.V.D. champion, Cave Spring, 4-3 and overpowered Rad¬ ford with a 16-1 victory, finishing the season with a 14-8 record. Coaches Flinchum and Rolen looked forward to another successful season. Nine returning lettermen would give needed experience, but their success would depend upon finding a team leader and more pitchers.

Baseball Never-Give-Up Attitude Keeps J.V. Alive Coach Gary Lester and the Cougar Junior Varsity team compiled a suc¬ cessful 8-3 win-loss record. The Junior Varsity team showed a great deal of courage and desire, as they had to come from behind in several contests to gain a win. The strength of the young Cougars was to be found in their defensive game and their never-give-up attitude. Key fielders for the young Cougars were first baseman Tripp Dunman, short stop Scott Ward, second basemen Gary Evans and Richard Young, and outfielders Billy Jones and Jeff McClellan. Key hitters for the Junior Varsity Cougars included Tripp Dunman, who had three homeruns throughout the season. Also contributing to the hitting attack were Curtis “Boom- Boom” Burchett, catcher Keith Edwards, and outfielders Scott Koch and Malcolm Cadd. The young pitching staff fought the hardships of inexperience throughout the season. The mound duties fell upon the shoulders of sophomore Dean O’Dell and freshmen Jimmy Easter and Jeff Hurd. Overcoming their inexperience, the new pitchers did a tremendous job to help give their team a winning record. A highlight of the season was a big vic¬ tory over the Radford Bobcats. The Cougars also defeated the Woodlawn Raiders, the St. Paul Deacons, the Wytheville Maroons, and the Blacksburg Indians. The Junior Varsity team benefitted greatly from the eight wins of the 1979 season. Many of the younger Cougars gained valuable game experience which prepared them to contribute to the varsity team during 1980. Experienced players from the middle schools sought coveted positions on the J.V. team. Following Coach Lester’s departure, John Westburg became J.V. baseball coach. He worked hard to maintain the record established by his predecessor. (LEFT) Fi rst baseman Tripp Dunman puts muscle into his unique power-hitting style. (ABOVE) “Duck!

Several members won district honors, bringing to an end another successful record. Richard Noel won both the mile and two-mile at the district meet. Also scoring were teammates Eddie Sayers for the mile and two-mile, Chuck Pound for the 880 and Brad Wilson for the shot-put and discus. Throughout the season, many Cougar runners achieved their goals in running the mile below five minutes. Their many meets took them from Charlottesville to Knoxville. One of the largest meets the Cougars participated in was the Volunteer Classic at the Univer¬ sity of Tennessee. There a new school record of 8:02.5 minutes in the two-mile relay was set by Chuck Pound, Richard Noel, Mark Cox, and Eddie Sayers.

The 110-yard hurdles were new and challenging to the hurdlers. Cindy Farmer set a school record of 17.9 seconds for the hurdles. Mary Williams broke her own record at the shot put, and Jamie Hensdill broke the old record in the two-mile run. Talented newcomers scored many points for the lady Cougars. Cindy Rupe ran on the relay teams and ran sprints in¬ dividually. Jamie Hensdill placed within the top five in the mile and the two-mile, as did Carrie Williams in shot and discus. Pam McClanahan placed second in the district in the shot put. District scoring by these rookie members of the track team qualified them for regionals. Veteran Mary Williams reached state competition, which was the highest place ever earned by a member of the Girls’ Track team. She was also recipient of the Most Valuable Player award, along with the Sportsmanship award. The team hosted an invitational meet for the middle schools for a money¬ making project. Team members set up and ran the meet themselves. It was a great learning experience for all the girls. GIRLS ' TRACK SCOREBOARD P.C.H.S.

Yama and Pat¬ terson worked to improve last year’s dou¬ bles record, when they placed second in the Northwest region. Senior Barry Moore and junior, Russell Turner were at fourth and fifth positions, respectively.

Cheerleaders Supply Spirit Evidence of the new level of school spirit, the winter cheerleading squad prepares to welcome teams to the most hilarious pep rally of the year. Before school opened this year, the fall J.V. and Varsity cheerleaders were already working to improve their cheerleading skills. The cheerleaders at¬ tended camp during July. There the Var¬ sity cheerleaders won the Golden Eagle Region Award for the most outstanding squad. During the summer they also held a clinic for young cheerleaders. The cheerleaders were not only responsible for cheering at football games; they also worked hard for other sports. The girls generated spirit as they cheered for the girls’ basketball team, boys’ tennis team, wrestling teams, gym¬ nastics team, track team, and the baseball team. The cheerleaders created enthusiasm by decorating the field house and local stores. They also introduced a new em¬ blem for Cougar fans, the Cougar paw. Through their spirited cheering, the fall Varsity and J.V. cheerleaders added a great deal to the sports seasons. 214 Fall Cheerleaders (ABOVE) After winning the highest award given at the Golden Eagle Cheerleading Camp in Bristol Varsity cheerleaders return home to cheer at football games.

I ! 216 Varsity Football Come From Behind Attitude Adds Intensity The 1979 football season proved to be the most successful ever for the Cougars. Under the leadership of new head coach Joel Hicks, the Cougars, for the first time in six years, had a super season. This football season increased the spirit and enthusiasm of the entire county. The Cougars opened the season with a 13-0 victory over the Radford Bobcats. This was one of the greatest Cougar vic¬ tories ever, and it was played before one of the largest crowds in area high school history. In the next game the Cougars were again victorious. The team downed the Carroll County Cavaliers 22-0. The next to fall to the Cougars were the Martinsville Bulldogs. In a final quarter rally, the Cougars blitzed the Bulldogs 23-13. The fourth game of the season proved to be a painful loss for the Cougars. The team was narrowly defeated by Cave Spring. The 8-7 loss was difficult to take, but the Courgars immediately returned to diligent practicing. The Homecoming game brought the Cougar record to 4-1. The Cougars defeated the Franklin County Eagles, 20- 9. This victory set the stage for a magnifi¬ cent homecoming weekend. During the sixth game, Cougar fans enjoyed one of the most astonishing comebacks of the season. Trailing 13-3 with a mere 5:51 remaining, the Cougars rallied to overthrow William Fleming, 15- 13. In one of the most spectacular wins of the season, the Cougars traveled to Williamsburg to do battle with the Lafayette Rams. The Cougars annihilated the Rams, 27-0. In the next game the Cougars had their first victory ever over the Northside Vik¬ ings. In the last two minutes of the game, the Cougars took the game away from Northside. This brought the team’s record to 7-1 and gave them a chance at the Roanoke Valley District title. The ninth game of the season took the Cougars to Salem to face the Spartans. In one of the finest offensive games of the year, the Cougars defeated the Spartans, 46-7. The Cougars then met Patrick Henry at Victory Stadium for the R.V.D. title. In front of 8,000 enthusiastic Cougar fans, the Cougars met with one of the greatest disappointments of the season. The Patriots defeated the Cougars 21-9. The Cougars were greatly disappointed, but they rallied with enthusiasm when they learned they were to play George Washington.

(BELOW) Head Coach Joel Hicks, known as the man with the plan, encourages more spirit and support at one of the fall pep rallies. Joel Hicks Leaves County in Ecstasy Not many people were capable of gaining respect and admiration instantly, but one such individual did just that. Coach Joel Hicks took over the Cougar football team and boosted the morale of the entire school. Everyone knew this man. He never failed to talk with in¬ quisitive students. Coach Hicks looked for football prospects in the commons area every day. He encou raged anyone interested in his program. Not only did his friendliness win the admiration of the school and community, but the complete turnaround in football made him a hero. Coach Hicks refused to accept all the credit for an impressive record of 8-2; he gave credit to the team. Although the team won their games, Coach Hicks was responsible for instilling their never-give- up attitude. His confidence became the team’s confidence, and school history was made. He was no newcomer to winning. Coach Hicks enjoyed coaching college football before coming to P.C.H.S. He felt that there was a great difference in the two atmospheres. The main difference was teaching every day, without a busy schedule of recruiting new players. He thought the practice seasons were similar, but high school coaching was less hectic than college. Coach Hicks said that he always liked athletics. He played high school football in Richmond, West Virginia. He also played college football. Coach Joel Hicks was certainly one of the most popular people of 79. Football not only involves physical strength but more brainwork than thought by most people.

State Playoffs — By the Smallest Margin In the first stage of the state playoffs, the Cougars shocked the state with an upset. The Courgars defeated top-ranked George Washington of Danville, 7-0. This raised the season mark to 9-2. This vic¬ tory meant that the Cougars would again face Patrick Henry. In the final game of the season, the Cougars again suffered defeat at the hands of Patrick Henry. The game seemed almost a replay of the first Cougar-Patriot contest. The Cougars were leading at the half, but the Patriots came from behind to win, 14-7. This game ended the best season Cougar fans had ever witnessed. G. W. of Danville’s famous passing game was held to a minimum in the first round of the state playoffs. Varsity Football 221 J.V. and 9th Grade Teams Conquer Knights At first glance the Cougar Junior Var¬ sity football team’s record did not look im¬ pressive, but for these sophomores came the first wins since entering high school. Their final scores left the J.V. team with a season record of 2-3-1. The Cave Spring shutout was an inspiring victory, but the young Cougars considered their one- point victory over Patrick Henry the high point of their season. The team held their ground with the Northside Vikings to tie the game. The purpose of the J.V. squad was to give experience and preparation to the sophomores for varsity action in 1980. The ninth grade football team closed out the year with a big 34-0 win over William Byrd. This gave the Cougars a winning season with a record of 3 wins, 2 losses, and 2 ties. Northside handed the baby Cougars their worst defeat. Victories over Cave Spring and Glenvar served to inspire team members to continue their football efforts as they sought positions on the J.V. squad. The Cougars had several good players this year, including All-District performers Wally Flinchum (split end), Pat Boysaw (flanker), and Buddy Ratcliff (linebaker). Head coach Joel Hicks felt that this ninth grade football team would make a very worthwhile contribution to the varsity program in the next three years.

While 2-8 was not the kind of season Coach John Freeman would have wished for, he was quick to point out how young and inexperienced his team was. Only two returning letter winners, Stephanie Peters and Autti Hyde, were on the team. While Peters and Hyde took over the top two positions on the squad, youth and inexperience prevailed in the rest of the lineup. The Cougars started only one senior, Jo Ellen Napier, who played number four. Junior Sharon Brown was the number three player, while Catherine Jackson, Kelly Chaffin, and Jana Newman shared the fifth and sixth positions during the season. Jackson was only a freshman, while Chaffin and Newman were sophomores. Sophomore transfer Kerin King also saw varsity singles action, and like the other underclassmen, will com¬ pete for a starting position next season. During last season, Stephanie Peters and Autti Hyde represented P.C.H.S. in the district finals. Napier and Brown were winners at number two doubles during the season.

MNHMMi Inexperienced Volleyball Team Develops Game Skills The 1979 volleyball season was many things, mostly a growing season since most of the players were inexperienced in actual game playing. As a young team, mainly sophomores and juniors, they developed tremendously in skills. The team developed an aggressive style of playing characterized by good setting, hard spiking and many blocks. All players improved greatly during the season. At the net, Meshell Black, Pam McClanahan and Denise Fisher were very impressive as hitters and blockers. Setters for the season were Denise Fisher, Trina Painter and Gina Shelor. Good all-around playing came from Rene Plarvey and Beth Jones. Karen Worrell, Vickie Flail, and Beth Ramsey improved steadily and worked extremely hard. Lisa Vaughan did an excellent job as scorekeeper. Captains were Trina Painter and Gina Shelor. Despite the dismal-sounding win-loss record, there were many very close and exciting matches. The players were par¬ ticularly impressive against William Flem¬ ing and Salem. The players put in much time and effort and didn’t give up working and improving. With the loss of only one senior, Trina Painter, next year’s season has the potential to be really good. 226 Volleyball Pam McClanahan, who was voted Best Hitter, proves her ability.

With Richard Noel and Mark Cox at the helm, the cross country team ended its season undefeated in district competition, losing only to non-district Blacksburg High School. Noel and Cox finished first and second in most meets throughout the season. Richard won the district championship while Mark won third place, setting a record for the highest finish of two run¬ ners from the same school in the Roanoke Valley District. The rest of the team, Coach Wright felt, ran their worst race in two years to drop into a disap¬ pointing third place finish. His disappoint¬ ment was understandable in view of the team’s record. Since Noel and Cox joined the team, the Cougars had compiled a 41-6 win-loss record. Two of the losses came in their senior year! Mark Cox certainly had his best season ever in 79. He made a dramatic move at the regional meet by passing five runners in the final three hundred yards to qualify for the state meet where he finished in the top twenty percent of all the runners in Virginia. With the qualifying finish, Cox became only the second P.C. student ever to place in a regional meet. The other team members showed their ap¬ preciation by voting Cox and Noel co- M.V.P. for the year. In his track career, Noel had won eleven district cham¬ pionships, but this was his first in cross country. Practicing was not considered the most enjoyable task of the day, but dedication paid off in the end. The Cougar men were proud of their reputa¬ tion of being a talented team.

Winter Cheerleaders Work to Support Basketball Teams The Varsity and Junior Varsity winter cheerleaders worked diligently the entire year to increase school spirit. They at¬ tended the Cheerleader Spirit Con¬ ference in North Carolina; there the Var¬ sity squad won the spirit stick and the Junior Varsity squad won the giant spirit stick. They sold boxes of envelopes to raise funds for their many projects. Under the leadership of Angela Dun¬ can and Tori Croslin, the Varsity cheerleaders supported the Varsity basketball team at the games, and they increased school spirit by decorating the building. The Junior Varsity squad, led by Bridgett Slaughter and Lynn Dean, sup¬ ported the Junior Varsity team. Both teams enjoyed a successful year in in¬ creasing the enthusiasm of the student body. The real work of cheering began with the advent of basketball season. Because the basketball teams played twice as many games, their cheerleaders were in¬ volved in cheering longer. Many times, too, there were two contests per week. Keeping up with one’s homework and cheering was often difficult, but members of the winter squads enjoyed the challenge.

Winter Cheerleaders 231 Varsity Basketball Team Bombs Celtics and Sets New School Record with 100 Pulaski County High School opened its 1979-80 season playing in the New River Valley Tip-off Tournament. The Cougars had been picked to finish fourth in the Roanoke Valley District since they were so small and had lost their high-scoring guard, Roy Flynn, to graduation. The Cougars started their season by winning the New River Valley Tip-off Tournament. They ended the season with a 14-6 record, finishing second in the Roanoke Valley District and having lost only one game on their home court. Since they were so small, the Cougars played a man-to-man defense and a spread- offense in order to compete with their much taller opponents. Highlights of the season included the 100 point victory over visiting Roanoke Catholic and the third quarter of the William Fleming game. In the latter, both teams scored only seven points as the Cougars “froze” the ball in an excellent display of ball control. The greatest mo¬ ment of the season, though, was the overwhelming defeat of Patrick Henry, a long-time rival. The Cougars beat Patrick Henry at home by a 15 point lead. This was the first time they had ever defeated the Patriots. The defensive players held P.H.’s top-scorer down to a minimal 6 points, which was a first in itself. Gary Clark and Chris Lambert played a superb offense, landing 20 points and 15 points respectively. Daniel Brown, David Webb, and Harvey Black played an excep¬ tionally good defensive game playing off the end with crucial rebounds. During the away Franklin County game the Cougars overcame tremendous pressure from the fans to win by a six point lead. The Cougars also defeated William Fleming to oust the Eagles and the Colonels for second place in the Roanoke Valley District. The Varsity team will lose six seniors to graduation. Harvey Black, Daniel Brown, Gary Clark, Glenn Pratt, Randy Olverson, and Steve Brown contributed a lot to the team effort and will be hard to replace. Two juniors, David Webb and Chris Lam¬ bert, were the other starters whose play¬ ing ability contributed to the team’s success. They will be returning next year. 232 Varsity Basketball Rebounds require quick hands combined with great jumping ability as dis¬ played by Chris Lambert and Randy Olverson.

Varsity Basketball 233 Cougar Cagers Gain First District Title Tournament time arrived and Pulaski County traveled to the Salem Roanoke Valley Civic Center to face Northside in the tourney opener. The Cougars were favored in the match against the seventh- ranked Vikings, but the game was a bit of a struggle as the Cougars fought to a 57- 54 victory. The clock, scoreboard and P.A. system failed to function at the 5:00 p.m. contest, and fouls plagued both teams, but P.C. won to face the fourth- ranked Salem Spartans. Salem had defeated P.C. twice in regular season, but the Cougar Cagers defeated Salem with a tight defense and excellent shooting (54.6 per cent). It was their easiest victory of the tournament. Regular season district champion Patrick Henry was the Cougars’ opponent in the Saturday night finals. The Cougars had split the regular season games against P.H., losing on the road and win¬ ning at home. No other district school had toppled the Patriots, who entered the game with an 18-1 record. Little Davey Webb stole the show in that championship game from which Pulaski County emerged victorious 60- 59. With three seconds remaining, Webb, who had already scored nineteen points in a nip-and-tuck contest flooded with controversy, banked the six-foot jumper which gave the game to the Cougars. They had shot a remarkable 61.5 per cent from the floor securing the victory. “Not bad for the midgets and the munchkin,” was Coach Allen Wiley’s comment on the victory which drew hundreds of jubilant fans onto the floor for the trophy presen¬ tation and net-cutting ceremonies. The win gave Pulaski County the dis¬ trict title, but there was more to come. Representatives of Roanoke Valley Dis¬ trict member schools had voted last year to hold a special play-off to choose the school to represent the R.V.D. in regionals in the event that the regular season winner and the tournament win¬ ner were not the same school. The ruling required a rematch between Patrick Henry and Pulaski County! The game was an emotional battle which drew hundreds of P.C. fans to the S.R.V. Civic Center. All five starters hit double figures as the Cougars clenched a berth in the regional tournament with a decisive 65-58 victory. Senior Gary Clark’s 17 points led all other scorers; David Webb scored 14, Chris Lambert and Daniel Brown 12 each, and Randy Olverson scored 10. School spirit seemed reborn at P.C.H.S. The final buz¬ zer again drew tremendous crowd response. Students chanted, “We are stretching out! We are stretching out!” as they hoisted the team members aloft in the classic tribute to victors. It was their first district championship.

Ninth Grade Basketball Cougar players and opponents show rebounding ability. Freshmen Top Williamsburg; J.V. Team Defeats R.C. Twice The Freshman Basketball Team showed great improvement during the season. The toughest handicap was lack of teamwork. The competition had played together since the seventh grade. Some outstanding performers in¬ cluded Johnny Thomas, floor leader; Tony Conner, leading scorer; and Jerome Brown, leading rebounder (in¬ cluding 21 rebounds against Cave Spring). Chris Martin played fine basket¬ ball and scored 20 points against Cave Spring. Buddy Ratcliffe had a solid season rebounding and scoring. Wade Hutchins improved tremendously, along with Brian Lafferty and Cedrick Cruise. Some of the highlights of the season in¬ cluded defeating Radford, Williamsburg, and Cave Spring, and losing by one point twice to Hidden Valley. Statistically the young Cougars averaged 43 points per game; our opponents averaged 49. (LEFT) Sophomore Steve Duncan uses an overhead jump shot to shoot from an angle for a two-pointer. The 1979-80 Cougar J.V. Basketball team did not have a particularly good season with a record of 3-15. Their only wins were over Roanoke Catholic (twice) and George Wythe. The season began with a win over Roanoke Catholic at Roanoke. Jeff McClellan was high scorer with 27, but there was not another win for the J.V.’s until Roanoke Catholic came to Pulaski County. The J.V.’s won a fairly easy contest over the Celtics. The final win of the season was over George Wythe at Pulaski County. The game was all tied up at 52-52 with four seconds left. When George Wythe threw the ball in, Terry Edwards stole it and passed to Jeff McClellan, who shot the ball with 2 seconds left on the clock. The ball bounced off the back of the rim, and Allen Brown tipped it in for the 54-52 win. Scott Ward was high scorer for the Cougars with 18 points. J.V.

The Girls’ Basketball Team gave an ef¬ fort during the 1979-80 season under the direction of Coach Diane Wright. An ex¬ ceptionally well-played game was the Franklin County home game. The team came out playing with the momentum and spirit of a determined team to have a much-deserved victory. The score of the first half, 20-26, reflected the evenly- matched abilities of both teams. In the third quarter the Cougars trailed by 12 points but did not give up. They rallied together and captured the lead with 1:38 left to go in the game after changing leads with Franklin County. The disappointing loss was decided when the last shot of the Lady Cougars, with 7 seconds left to go, failed to go in. Although the season was a losing one, many pre-set goals were accomplished. The free throw percentage and the rebounding increased as the season progressed. More girls scored, and many personal scoring records were achieved to round out the season. Girls’ Basketball 239 Invincibles Guide Group to Most Successful Conclusion After losing four of the first six matches, there was some doubt as to how much success the Cougar Wrestling Team might have. Through the leadership of team captains Bobby Viers and Jim Gloster, the team continued to work and won the next six matches in a row, a school record. The Wrestling Team finished with eight wins and six losses with a second place finish in the Blacksburg Christmas Tour¬ nament. The highlight of the season was a third place finish in the Roanoke Valley District. Even though the team was successful, greater accomplishments were achieved by individual team members. Steve Hayes, a senior, completed an un¬ defeated season with an 18-0-0 record. He was champion, in the unlimited weight class, of the Roanoke Valley District and the Blacksburg Christmas Tournament. As a sophomore, Butch Childress com¬ pleted his second undefeated regular season. His record this year was 19-0-0 with championships in both the Roanoke Valley District and Blacksburg Christmas Tournament. The Cougar Wrestling Team fared well in the Northside Regional Tournament, placing seventh out of 19 teams. It was an excellent tournament for three Cougars who qualified for the Virginia State Tour¬ nament. Ron Bevins placed fourth at 167 lb., Steve Hayes placed second in the un¬ limited class, and Butch Childress became Pulaski County’s first regional champ at 105. Agitation marks the face of David Trivisonno as he fights to free himself from his opponent’s grip.

The ninth graders had a very rough season with a 0-5 record. The team was led by captains Robert Smith and Steve Trivisonno. The co-captains were Leroy Brown and Jeff Jones. The freshman team had seven middle school starters. The best records were earned by eighth grader Mike Christian and freshman Leroy Brown who together compiled a 5- 0 record at the 112-pound weight class. Due to a lack of team members, the team went through the season with five forfeits each match, giving up 30 points. In the district tournament at Glenvar Junior High School there were four ribbons given to Pulaski wrestlers. At the 77-pound weight class Jeff Akers of Pulaski Middle was awarded fourth place. At the 105-pound weight class Lydell Slaughter of Pulaski Middle was awarded a hard fought win for the third-place ribbon. At the 112-pound weight class Mike Christian was awarded fourth place. Ninth grader Steve Trivisonno placed a well-deserved fourth place in the 134-pound weight class. The freshmen practiced long and hard in pre¬ season with the varsity wrestlers. The pre¬ season was nothing but conditioning and getting ready for the regular season work¬ out. The ninth graders practiced in the field house every school day and snow- days, too. They did not win matches, but they got something else instead. They got experience. That was the key—ex¬ perience enough to be ready for the var¬ sity team and to be top contenders for the 1980-81 season. Even though they did not get a taste of victory, they had pride in themselves, the coaches, and the school. The teams that beat them did not go away without knowing that they had had to work to beat the freshman team. Every match was fought with pride and the desire to win. ■fT (TOP) Referee Reggie Slaughter watches intently as Steve Trivisonno works for a pin.

With the depth on the team this year, next year was looked forward to with great anticipa¬ tion. The team lost one senior, Gayle Farlow, who was a strong contender in both the events in which she competed, bars and vault. She was a consistent win¬ ner. The Lady Cougars depended on depth from the ninth and tenth graders this season. Each gymnast really showed talent and great gymnastic prowess all season long. With the level of competition so high, there were not many stars. The team as a whole worked together to make it a winning season. Warm-ups are a time for both practice and fun.

Of the seven who competed, six qualified, emphasizing the philosophy the team had purported all season. With such a small Indoor Track Team, it was all but impossible to compile an im¬ pressive team record. In the district meet, for instance, the Cougar harriers entered only four of the fifteen events. Even so, they placed third behind Fleming and P.H. The Cougars chose instead to con- % centrate upon superior individual perfor¬ mances. The realization of their goal was indicated by the six team members qualifying for regionals. Richard Noel won an amazing eleven district championships in indoor track. He held tbe district record in the mile and the two-mile. Teammate Mark Cox, the second best distance runner in the dis¬ trict, held county records in the 800 and the 1000-meter runs.

Unflattering bumper stickers and dart boards featuring Khomeini sprang up overnight in America. “One of many,” the theme of the United Nations, became a reality in 1979 when worldwide crisis forced countries to act together. Rising inflation caused hardships on society although America’s economy actually grew 3.3 percent. In¬ creased oil prices threatened the future economic stability of many third world countries. Angered by admittance of the ex-Shah of Iran into the U.S. for medical treatment, Iranian students took over the American Embassy in Iran in November, 1979, defying international law and shocking the world. Shortly after the takeover most black and female American prisoners were released, but fifty hostages were held for more than one hundred days with limited contact with the outside world. Several other countries shut down their embassies in Iran shortly after the takeover. Canada, in a magnanimous gesture, concealed four Americans in its embassy for nearly a hundred days before slipping them out of the country on falsified passports. Russia invaded Afghanistan, and America responded with a grain embargo and a threatened boycott of the Olympic summer games to be held in Moscow. President Carter urged other nations to boycott the summer games. The 1980 Presidential campaign began in earnest in the fall of 1979 as Democratic and G.O.P. hopefuls entered primaries throughout the nation. Presi¬ dent Carter neglected the campaign to concentrate upon foreign affairs. His two strongest opponents, Senator Ted Ken¬ nedy (MA) and Governor Jerry Brown (CA) sometimes criticized this oldest of campaign strategies. Republican fore¬ runners Ronald Reagan (CA), George Bush (TX), and Howard Baker (TN) debated inflation, energy, the draft, and other issues. Indeed, most Americans debated the draft. The subject was a source of cons¬ tant concern by those that would be af¬ fected by it and the older generations. For the first time in U.S. history women were also to register. Opinions varied in the ex¬ treme as to the desirability of drafting women. Students at P.C.H.S. joined the rest of the American populace in arguing the issue.

Seven Vocalists Go to All-Virginia Chorus Locally, incumbents Danny Byrd and Jeff Stafford returned to their seats in the State Senate and House. Senator Byrd visited the local F.B.L.A. chapter, not to campaign but to explain to students his own experiences in F.B.L.A. P.C. stu¬ dents campaigned, and welcomed the candidates and their opponents to the campus. Several P.C. students won preliminary contests and thereby qualified to com¬ pete at the state level. Seven choir mem¬ bers were selected for All-Virginia Chorus. Harriers Mark Cox and Richard Noel won regional events and traveled to the state meet, as did wrestlers Ron Bevins, Steve Hayes, and undefeated lightweight Butch Childress. Perhaps national and international events overshadowed Virginia, for it was a quiet year in the state. Governor Dalton’s proposed gasoline tax increase sparked considerable debate, and the Senate passed a bill lowering the tax on home heating fuel. The Equal Rights Amendment failed again—but by only one vote. Basically, the decade of the 80 ' s began smoothly.

County Passes Formidable Dog Leash Law Locally, dogs were in the news when Pulaski passed the “Dog leash law” re¬ quiring that all canines within the county be properly constrained. Fall elections produced a new Commonwealth’s Attor¬ ney, Everett P. Shockley, and returned in¬ cumbent Sheriff Frank Conner to office. The countywide water system, for years a controversial issue, quietly expanded. With the rest of the nation, our students rocked to “Babe”, “The Wall”, Longer”, “Sail On”, “Heart of Glass”, “Special Lady”, and “Honesty”. Tape decks and radios, officially forbidden, occasionally filled the locker banks with the above, and other, sounds. Movies, perhaps inadver¬ tently echoing the national mood, were less violent, less disaster-ridden in ’80. Star Trek, Apocalypse Now, The Jerk, and American Gigolo were favorites, as were The Rose, and All That Jazz. Outgrowth of the television series, The Muppet Movie captured the fancy of Americans and blasted Miss Piggy to stardom. Broadway began a nostalgic restaging of many of the old musical favorites—it seemed that America was looking backward, perhaps missing the now seemingly secure years of the fifties and sixties. With such a focal point, we faced the eighties like Janus, looking backward and forward and seeking the best of both images. Mardi Gras provides a chance for wild costumes and dances.

Mrs. Jeanne Hillman, Sponsor Mrs. Marianne Trotter, Business Manager Contributing Photographers Typists Rodell Cruise Marjorie Whittaker David Trivisonno Todd Boyd Mr. John Duncan Mr. Tinker Hillman Mr. Bob Whytal Acknowledgements The 1980 Cougar Pinnacle Staff was a young one—young in experience. However, before the last deadline we had grown into a fully functional yearbook family with broken pica poles, torn-up layouts, long hours, and many completed pages behind us. As the book grew, we grew, watching ideas become reality through our teamwork. As a team, though, we did not make it alone. The Pinnacle Staff wishes to thank the entire staff and student body of P.C.H.S. for their time and patience with all of us. Without them, we could not have produced their book. We wish to extend extra thanks to the following people without whose many contributions we could not have completed our task: We thank Mr. Dewey Wilson, Mrs. Majella Myers, and the rest of the administration for their support and understanding. We thank Mrs. Ginny Fizer, Mr. Bob Whytal, Mr. Mont Quesenberry, Mr. Mark Harris, and Miss Patsy King who got us started and offered assistance and reassurance throughout the year. We extend a very special thanks to Miss Suzanne Steele for her proofreading and Mr. John Newberry for his help with copy. Their con¬ tributions of time and understanding made our task much more bearable. We thank Miss Brenda Waller and her fifth period class for copy, Mrs. Brenda Hylton and her second period class for typing senior names, and especially Mrs. Marianne Trotter and her fourth period class for their help in annual sales and advertisement billing, and for typ¬ ing senior statistics and the index. We thank Mrs. Lyndall Mason for designing our cover and division pages and Mrs. Mary Roop for setting the headlines for the class pages. We thank the gym teachers, the U.S. History teachers, Mrs. Al Mode, and Mrs. Maria Davis for their help in completing class pictures. We thank Mr. Garfield Ramsey and Mrs. Tess Ramsey for the many times they processed film, made contact sheets, and got the prints to us—all in one day (usually right before a deadline). We thank the office staff, Mrs. Linda Johnson, Mrs. Phyllis Cram, Mrs. Shirley Brown, Mrs. Bonnie Ward, Mrs. Barbara Crockett, and Mrs. Harriet Berry for their help in xeroxing, running stencils, and a hundred other tasks they performed for us. Thanks also to student aides Kathy Palmer, Renee White, Sherry Berry, Tammy Davidson, and Debbie Sexton for the many errands they ran for us. Finally, we thank photographers Mr. John Duncan, Mr. Tinker Hillman, Rodell Cruise, and David Trivisonno who, while not on the staff, contributed unselfishly both their time and many of the candids in this book.
